and he did it on a kite he'd just been handed in the water a minute or two earlier! WTG Grom!
Big props to Wally for getting Grom back in the comp by giving him his kite!

| Remember when he was this cute little kid that couldn't get past the buoy without tomahawking Carol's favorite kite into a deflated fluttering mess, and had to swim in EVERY evening?

and he took to breaking a pencil before every session in the hopes it would keep him from breaking the kite, or a board, or a bar, or lines, or a harness, or another kite, or a leash.... That first season was expensive!

My pleasure for sure and have seen Grom in action helping others at prior events religiously giving his time and stoke. Wild watching him come in for the first two approaches, getting the feel and then boom, the loud explosion of a roaring BOTG crowd! "The Sickest Trick of the BOTG"! That was a 12m, nice work Grom! Thanks everyone for coming out....

BOG's represents everything about kiting that I love. An amazing event. All the more amazing when some of the hardest rippers take time to retrieve other's boards, or just hand-off their kites altogether.
