... pond was epic
,,, and I think I pissed off some windsurfers
.
With all that power, when you jump you cover long distances, more than I am used to, and nearly landed on them, scaring the sh!t out of a few. I apologiesed and they accepted but they were still p!ssed at me I'm sure!
On the other hand, at one stage I got cornered by 3 of them, all of us doing mach 9, and had to jump my way out of trouble and cleared one dude by miles and he woo hoo'd like he liked it and when we passed each other shortly after, he gave me the thumbs up.
Some of the local young guns are crazy, pulling mega loops right amongst the pack, but it was all a symphony of kites and lines moving amongst each other with no one ever getting in trouble. Helps heaps when being a tourist and giving way to locals, is a must in my opinion!
Met a guy a few days later at Point Walter while the missus and I sitting watching the carnage having a few (read many) beers when a dude walking past stopped and said to me, "ahh, your the guy with the 12m going big, I remember you!" Its easy when you have flat water and heaps of power!!
Pond was epic!! Did I say that twice, must be good if I said it twice!!!!
cheers for now,
Robbie
ps prize for guessing right is the honour of being the first dude to guess right!!??
