I think it's a green and yellow SS Link. The guy was riding about 2 weeks ago on that last good day at 3rd and broke a line. he cut his hand badly on the line and ended up ditching his kite and board and walking in from way out on the low tide.

If that rings a bell for anyone get in touch with him

yep. It was Hattem.. lives a few doors down the street from me. I saw the posting and told him about it. he is going to pick it up today. Kiter reunited with long lost kite after suffering injury.. what a story.. anyone want to make a movie out of it?
He is doing okay now.. Just had surgery on the fingers that were quite badly cut by the kitelines. The kite repowerd when he was holding onto just one line.

Hmmm, powered up while holding just one line? Guess it wasnt a C kite..... Hope he has a fast recovery.
