Hey man! I've ridden my 7m at Sebastien inlet and 9m at Marco Island.
Met an un-cool jelly at the inlet. Quick, someone pee on me.

I ran over one of those bastards and the tentacle wrapped around my leg. The poison slowly crept up my leg and into my waist area. It throbbed for about 3 hours. Very painful.

That guy designed the kites that probably half of us ride.


One week of moderately high winds..mixed with rains.. and the rest of the year you have...

Aids, Old people, shit loads of guns, Aids..and of course Kevin Kearney.

That's a royal flush my friend, game over.

Kevin who?

Your Florida tour guide sucks. Next time spend a few bucks instead of callin' that number on your cracker jack box.

It's getting cold out. Let me see if I still have those 0.5 mm neoprene tops to take the chill out Shocked

Plus, when our fronts come thru, its solid wind all day long. We dont change kite sizes 3 times a day and drive 4 hours throughout the day.

Mines bigger than yours (and i aint talkin kites)

I'm just sharin the stoke. We dont get long week long fronts of 25-30 knots that much. We get fronts quite often, but they are more like 15-20 knots on average for like 3 days a shot.

My favorite Florida feature is that the ONLY hill/incline/grade is an old landfill that got paved over.

Everybody knows California has the best oranges anyways. And Cuba.
