A day at the South Tower. Filmed over the past year showing an average day of kitesurfing and life around the South Tower of the Golden Gate Bridge... where all the good wind and waves for are centered at.
Kiting at Crissy also has LOTS of perils and things that can (and do) go wrong out there even to the best seasoned local riders.

Always something fun to do and watch out there. Kiting, surfing, SUPing, windsurfing, sailing, swimming, tourist watching, etc
Riders

Bubble, Brown, P-Air, Charlie, Due, Heineken, Fares, Geleynse,
Stephaans, Von Tesmar, Will, Loscocco and many others...

Thanks to Ocean Rodeo, Windy Devil, USCG, and the rest of the Crissy Crew

there was no wind at the end.. thats why if you are smart each day you are back at the beach by then watching the swimfest with a beer in hand. :)

Great video :)

Was it a windsurfer with no wetsuit under the bridge at 3:59? :shock:

Yep.. that guy is pretty crazy but he does it a lot during the summer. Its chilly if you are above the water but VERY cold in the water.

Here is one not so great from last season .Erin is in it jumping, Since he is the only local that comes to my mind about golden gate, I thought maybe you guys might like it.
