Well for a winter that didn't really happen we had a good run and made the whole 12 weeks of the Hardwater Kiting Speed Ranking. Masskiter Joe Sharron managed to eek out another session and make it into the last week of the ranking which is remarkable given how scarce snowkite session have been for you souther New Englanders.
Guy Lebrun of Quebec came out on top for the last week with a top speed of 69 mph. Just short of beating his top speed of the season 70.87. American Chris Krug came in second place this week and second overall with 68.1mph. Petri Lehikoinen of Finland and last year's overall winner came in 3rd for the week with 64.4 mph.
This week's ranking results as well as the final overall standings for the last 12 weeks can be found at hardwaterkiter.com

Even though I finished toward the bottom of the pack I had a great time this year on the snow, ice and grass. Looking forward to next year and can't wait to hit a day when there is actually snow on top of the frozen lake
