About a year ago when you guys were doing the 2nd clean up at the spit. Forrest was standing near the Kite school buildings controling motorized access and dispensing information. I was fairly new to kiting and there for only one day (first time), so I did not want to spend it cleaning up. Sorry
I talked to Forrest for a couple of minutes. He was friendly and gave me two tips that helped me have a newbie break through day. I really appreciated Forrest going the extra mile. It motivated me enough to throw $40 towards one of the kegs the clean up crew enjoyed that evening.
Thanks Forrest
Paul

I didn't wanna say this on a public forum, but here it goes...
If Forrest was a chick I'd throw him in a potato sack and abscond with him to the mountains to have a traditional Kazakh wedding.

Forrest is a great guy - looks out for other kiters - great attitude!!
However, as part of full disclosure, I gotta tell you, the guy sucks at chess  haha!! (Go to redhotpawn.com to join some hot chess action)

Forrest has spent alot of time(as well as others) on things like the slider project, beach clean ups, parties and such.  He always has a good constructive attitude, as well as a friendly personality!  I always enjoy seeing him at the beach or around town. He is just an all round great guy!  We are lucky to have some one like him around to organize things and get us motivated, other wise so many of us lazy beer drinking beach goones would do "JUST" that! Kite, sit on beach, drink beer(my favorite hobbies)!
So thank you Forrest for all the things you do and for just being you!
YOU ROCK!!!

I think that in honor of Forest charging it and pushing himself and the others around him, to the point of knocking his front fucking tooth out.. we should all pledge to push it out past the comfort zone and put a new skill in the pocket...
So what's it going to be gentleman? Who is going to try what?
Myself, I'm fucking throwing that S-bend attempt cause the last time I tried to roll in/out of my railey I landed HARD on my back and bit the shit out my tongue and haven't tried it again since. So in honor of Forest, I'm trying that shit again.

Alright dude, So I've been working on unhooked frontrolls as well. I just can't seem to get them. But I pledge to work on them every session from now on, until I get them dialed. I'm almost dialed on the unhooked backroll to blind though.
