We went an entire May month without any wind (got 1 or 2 days), but then June came around with awesome forecasts and alot of great days. Infact I managed to tear one of my stomach mucles, it doubled in size and hurt like hell. Just due to the fact that I got too many days on the water and not enough resting time. Was it worth it? Fuck yeah!
I had set up a little selfcam project, that turned out o.k if you ask me. It can be downloaded from this location (right click and save as)
I have also gotten some visits from my good friends Martin, Tom and Helge. Love to kite with these guys, you push yourself harder and go faster when you are with skilled friends. Easy to fall back when you are out there all buy yourself. Guess it’s my turn to visit them now, looking forward to it.
Guro and Susanne has taken some photos, they can all be found at my gallery.
I have gotten a few new trix dialed in, and are very happy with that. Some trix has been lost, but are in recovery mode (hopefully I will get them before the summer end). But one of the most memorable and fun trix is just jumping high and looping the kite. For me nothing bets the fact that it is like having your own personal rollercoster ride. Up up up, slingshoted away, coming down at insain speeds, and picked up again by the kite …. it’s a rush! Adrenalin pumping, endorfins exploding in your brain, what a great feeling.
