Newbie on Jacky's 7'8

Scott Burnside tried my board and Jacky's board this morning. He liked Jacky's board more, even though it was twice as hard to stand on. Scott has only SUPed 3 days in his life. The last time was 2 years ago. Pretty amazing to see a 170 lb guy with no SUP skill do this! Scott's a shortboarder. We've been trying for a long time to bring him to the dark side. Scott thought the board was fast.

Strong Wind, Fun Kiting

I took the straps off my surfboard today and left them home.

Lots of crashing today as I try to make the switch to strapless

Scott is making the transition to no hands kiting! :-)
