FYI, the nice windsurfer was tangled in kite lines, old dude swam to help him (good job), getting himself into the mess. His 10m kite was WAY powered and it DID relaunch, some scary shit. I heard it took a LONG time to wind up the lines and almost no time to sail/drift back to the beach.
That dude is one of the coolest local windsurfer/kiter/surfer guys around, and is friends with everyone here in town. I admit though, he can take his time getting in. I once saw him break a boom on a big day, took him forever to get back in with his rig. I think he enjoys floating around in the big surf , but really he likes saving his gear. Unfortunately, he stashed his bar in the rear footstrap of his board, and guess what, it didn't make it back. |

So sorry I was way out of line - didn't realize you had just had major kitemare...
also didn't realize your bros where watching you and it was no big deal.
I'm not usually such an asshole - was geniunely worried you would be getting tired out...
Sorry
