Well I'm stumped how she pulled off the one footer. She definitely went out on a limb to do that trick.

Technically it's a no footer.

To be honest at first look I thought Toby was just admiring some hot ass doing Airstyle.

Respect.

I've gotta wonder though ... why mess around with board offs under the circumstances?

Why knot?

She could go for one leg off trick rather than the board off./... even the mighty Toby couldnt pull that one off!

Just saw this picture...I am truly impressed by this lady!!!

Looking forward to more of those shots :thumb:
I work sitting next to her every day!!

For those that choose to make jokes, she's as tough as they come and a total inspiration. You will never catch her parking in the disabled spots. "I can't" isn't in her vocabulary. She would probably laugh if she knew you and you made these comments, or rip your head off if she didn't? She foils, does kiteloops, everything. A genuine ripper and an awesome human being.

Thanks for those insights, CD. Somehow, I had a feeling she'd be just like you described. Respect. :thumb:
