Awesome to see, and if you're gonna get rescued, might as well be by a top 10 racer. Kite was a flysurfer (surprise, not). Surprised he let go of the board in the shorepound, most racers are very protective against their foil grinding gainst wet said, but perhaps that was just a training foil. One nitpick, in swim rescue training they usually tell you to push your board towards the victim and let them grab on to that, rather than risking letting them in a panic climbing you like a pool ladder and shoving you underwater.        Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Northwest Kiteboarding Discussion Forum----------------Gorge / Portland / Oregon CoastFor SaleLost & FoundIndustry SoapboxCGKA  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum You can attach files in this forum You can download files in this forum
