Just got in after teaching a great lesson today! My student was up and riding and started to ride up wind within the first lesson along with a few jumps (not sure if they were on purpose) :) ! So excited to have someone else loving the sport like I did when I started and always a + adding a girl kiter to this male sport! Watch out for this girl in the next couple years she will be ripping soon! Check out the Pictures. Best of all its my girlfriend, can't wait to ride together!

2011 Hadlow's
Hey just got in my new Flexifoil Hadlow's! Really excited to get in the water and fly these. The kites have very good build quality this year and have a lot of cool new options to fit your riding style! You can fly them in 5 line or 4/6 line setups and now also you can put a pulley on each front line and offer up to 50% more depower! Once I get the kites dialed in, I'll post a review about the new Hadlow's here. If your in Florida and want to try these out just hit me up! Not too many in the US yet! Here are a few pictures of the new kites. You know the feeling of getting new kites you have to set them up. Thanks Flexifoil for your support and great gear!

New Portable Rail! Plans Included
So just finished building a new rail to use out here in the bay. Only problem when building this was that here in the bay you can't leave your features out in the water. So had to make it portable and easy to setup and break down. The rail is a 24' flat bar rail and with different legs it can easily turn into a incline rail. Down below is how I did it. Can't wait to get out and hit this new rail!
Here is the building material list and a few pics
Rail 24' 2 sections of 8"X12'
Deck 2- 2X8X12
Support Beam 2- 2X6X12

3- 4X4 Brackets
Feet 3- 2X4X8
Bolts needed 14 varies sizes
Plastic Deck(PVC Sheets)- 2X8 sheet
Rough Cost $150-200 I found a lot of my materials so my cost was around $100
