PostFri Jun 20, 08 9:16 pm    Extra Credit to Rico! Reply with quote

So I just received my copy of the latest SBC Kiteboard, and flipping through noticed that they published a 1/2 page Rico photo from Texas! I was psyched until I read the photo credit, which is wrongly credited to Tekko Photo. SBC knows about the mis-credited photo, but for all of you who don't know....

This is Henry Rico's shot, one of many sick sunset pics in the flatwater during that trip!! I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot more of Rico's work in the mags!

Teach me some of those slider skills for ripping it up on the Smith Limo Slider and we can ride together all day!! I might even get permission from Gregg!

Gotta love the internets.

Let's hope for some semi decent wind today so we can all progress. Gonna be heading to da Hood later. See you guys there.

PS Since when did kiting become such a dirty thing that you have to be single???

Rico... way to go with the shots!! So stoked to see your work out there!!

So sorry SBC put my name instead of your for the credit. You will learn.. the more you work with the mags.. that they make these mistakes more often than we'd like.

Hopefully they will print a correction and give you space for another amazing shot in the process!!

As for the hot chick with the ring in the photo... if you can keep up.. you should ride with her.. and maybe learn something.. or if you have some new tricks.. I'm sure she'd want to learn from you as well.

Just because she comes home with me every night doesn't mean she can't shred with who she likes during the day.

very nice! I have found that sometimes the magazines make a simple mistake and get names mixed up.
Those things happen and hopefully they start working with you more and minimize those issues.
Well they did get the name of the rider correct and yes she rips!

rico continues to inspire.
keep it up.
You provide great contributions to this forum.
