Do you ever surf 3rd man? Somedays there is Nobody... others TONS of people, and these guys go out FAR.

My experience is only with a trainer on the dirt flats over there, but i am looking to get in the water maybe this year... once i master how to manipulate the trainer.

I don't really make it down there, but have begun to accept the fact that driving a little farther than what you're used is occasionally a necessity to get some wind, so this year may be different.

Hey Ollie!
I really think that you would like it very much.
I am lucky that I work in the city it really opens up my choices on were to kite, and it blows very steady.
