After a couple of nice days with wind and sun, we have gotten pretty used to the slow and nice lifestyle. Wake up at around 9 a.m, eat breakfast, go to the bakery, eat the second breakfast. At 12, the wind usally starts to pick up. Walk to the beach with all the gear, stay for around 3-4 hours, walk back home. Eat dinner, watch alittle tv, eat second dinner and then go to sleep …. life is gooooood.
I have been talking to the nice guys at Flexifoil design team, and yesterday I gotten to try the new Flexifoil Ion4 8.5m2 kite. It was super sweet, very predictable, very grunty, yet easily controlable with a huge amount of lift! Hopefully I will get a go on the new AH Pro (they only have a 5.5m2 size with them), will report back with how it feels. The new boards look killer, and they have finally added a widen stance (so tall guys like me can use the boards). Wicked! So Flexifoil will have 4 kites coming out next year as far as i understand, can’t wait to check em out.

I’m working on getting into the groove, but it’s hard. Haven’t kited for a while before I got here, so I’m trying hard to get back up to my usual level (it sucks so hard, that when you don’t kite for a while you almost have to start at ground zero again).
