Day 2:
Wind: around 19 knots
Location: Duro Beach,
Cumbuco
Kite: Dyno 18
Lines: 25m
Board: Flyradical 128x38
Again nice conditions with some sweet waves as kickers. Filmed some nice tricks with good altitude.
18 was perfect choice for lots of hangtime and flying.

Awesome afternoon session at the Cauipe lagoon.

Day 5:
Wind: around 20 knots
Location:
Taiba and
Taiba Lagoon
Kite: Dyno 18
Lines: 25m
Board: Flyradical 128x38
We filmed about 1 hour in the ocean in front of Taiba...quiet wavy, got some nice airs.
Then I did a downwinder to the lagoon in Taiba and we filmed about 2 more hours there...it was perfect for barefoot slides!
And I even landed a new trick: Kick Flip Bare Foot Slide!
Pretty tricky, since I have to go very fast, and then kicking the board AND catching it at that speed is not easy! I hope we got it one tape!

Day 8:
Wind: around 20 knots
Location: Ilha do Guajiru,
Praia da Barra
Kite: Rebel 16
Lines: 25m
Board: Flyradical 128x38
Took a smaller kite today to have less power and relax the body a bit

Did some jumps, not too high, but did a new jump, inverted 360 with board flip.
And some other stuff, from a nice angle from the second floor of a building.
Also did many transitions, and some I never did before (720 boardoff transition).
