Re: The 77 year old kite surfer
That is really cool.
Always difficult to say the causality of things - if he is healthy because he kites or if because he is health he can kite - but I hope
I’m as “awake” mentally when I turn 77.

Re: The 77 year old kite surfer
I doubt I will be from all the concussions from kiting and wakeboarding I have had lol. But as long as I can kite I will be hopefully into my 70s.

Re: The 77 year old kite surfer
I was pleasantly surprised to see him go out on a TT - I don’t want to foil
