Lost my board on my first ride at Rooster...what a way to start. Was trying to grab it in huge swell when a barge came into the picture...bye bye board.
Also made the mistake of letting someone with a jetski pull me in without winding up my lines/kite after the wind died on me in the channel at HR. Ripped the 5th line grommets right off the kite. That was stupid!....Thanks Airtime! |

lost a frankentein naish 12m boxer in padre two years ago, pulled the wrong release and off she went downwind; cliff stone ran it down for me with his jetski-props again cliff-great guy and kite-maniac!
lost my ss doyle:
once at nitinat last summer; two hour hike to the windward terminus of the lake, and there it was, sitting on the beach with about $10 million in old growth cedar;
once again in obx last fall, sepeerated from it in a fall, cell-number on the board saved me on that one; also in hatteras, loaned my 10m rrd to a dude from sc, he crashed it and blew a hole from le to te-amazingly it still flew back to the beach. (that kite is for sale cheap to someone with good sewing skills-might trade it for a case of beer, actually.
