No problem. This is a great time of year. It will slow down in June though

Hey Travis. I live in St. Pete and have been kiting for ten years (just got back from riding, actually). I have no affiliation with any shop and am not a pimp of any brand (yes, there are some on here). I would highly recommend buying used gear from a local to start. Plenty of us locals (including m...

Why bans occur and how to prevent them is a complicated issue with complicated affecting factors. I only have my local experience and the stories of some throughout the state to come to a conclusion.

Thanks for posting the article and the video. I think it is clear that many who view this will have the "purist" response of not really liking it because it is staged. That is very logical and it makes sense that these shots wouldn't be featured in a hard core mag dedicated to wake, most likely. But...

2-Handed hand signals don't work so well when you are kiting...... :lol: That's what I was thinking. If there is a problem, such as an approaching storm, I usually just point at my eyes then the problem. I think most people can figure this one out - keep your eyes on the object pointed to. Not that...
