Oh, yes, he does...actually I think he is being a bit modest. I know of this guy. He really does kite that much. He has a good variety of boards and kites especially for the light wind days of Florida. Just admit it...we are all a bit envious! The scoop of this guy is that he really has put kiteboarding on the map in his area, so yes, give him some respect already!!! :superfly:

When people are having the "Cable Park" in Florida,
there is nothing to make things up because it's Supa-EZ to ride in light winds :bye:

I have seen and personally talked to SupaEZ a few times. He is the real deal. He was nice enough to share the stoke with a complete stranger (me) on the beach, taking time out to show me how to properly set up, launch, and fly my Flysurfer 21M. I have also seen him on the water and the dude rips. I have no doubt in his claims.

Kiting pet peeve
When people are hiding and bashing foil riders like PMU
meanwhile they're designers or pimping their own brands.

When a young girl shows up learning kiting for a free lesson,
but the instructor said already her dadi's lingam might a been too small
and her mother's bra would be too big.

My pet peeve is kiters who measure their fun in miles ridden and how fast they can go up wind, but yet claim they are not free riders. BTW: they can only do one trick and that is low jumps.

I just thought of a possible "peeve" ....how about when you hear :blabla: the owner of a new tube kite say: WOW! this 12 pulls like a 15 and turns like a 8 :strong: ...because we sure don't hear often my 135 edges like a 150 and carves like a 120 or my 5/7 planes like a 6/3 and slashes like a 5/2 :whisper:
