Nice video Mark - looked like an awesome trip - how did they let Chooch get back in the country and what was the deal with team silver Wonderwomen?

Damn it was windy on monday!
I took a ass whooping after only like 10 minutes on the water, ended up out of commission for the rest of the day (still am, I hope I didn't hurt myself).
Big thanks to this guy for getting my board for me, as I was in no position to drag for it.
Holly was huckin
the swell was fun
Yeah, it was really windy

I don't think I was injured by the harness at all.
I just hit the water really hard.
Now I have this pain in my back that feels like a rib problem.
We'll see how I feel in a few days. |

Bummer dude, rest up. Hopefully you'll be good as new in a week. Kiteloops can be punishing.

I’m regular, but either stance seems about the same for airs. The exact angle of the ramp to the wind, and its shape, seem to matter the most. On a skim, I actually find it a bit easier to pop on my switch heelside.
I’ve been working this year on switchstance top/bottom turns so I have the option to ride left hand waves frontside. This used to feel absolutely impossible, but after some deliberate work it’s finally coming together. I recommend it for anyone who wants to remember what it feels like to learn heelside/toeside carves all over again...
Blowhard, not sure how it’s on a real wave. Probably great for small and sloppy, but I have other boards for the coast so it hasn’t been tried yet.

Forrest what's up with that new skim you got...? Fins optional..?
And, got to give it to GABE for air-ing both goofy and regular!!

It's Holly's old school wakesurfer. It was fun to ride, but just kind of skatey. |

thanks Gabe,
I hear ya I'm also trying to ride the lefts frontside
seems so many places in the southern hemisphere are lefts (summer there)
riding with some goofys(some of the best)
makes me feel a little less well rounded 
slop and small stuff is what the Oregon coast is made out of ,,almost all the time
guess it's why I have some similar looking boards
innovative looking board D.C. is on it
