I have been injecting oil into my muscles for a while now and there is no doubt it improved my foiling.

Kiteboarding. Because football, baseball and basketball only require one ball. :D

Forget the Muscle Ego bullshit...

It didnt ever stop anyone from learning to kite and IS kiting.
Most important is being Supple enough - looking after flexibility of your spine.
If those nerves impinged are on fire - you aint kiting no more..

You are as young - as your spine is supple :cool2:
