I've just come back from a last minute trip to the Cook Islands and absolutely loved my time there! The water is dead flat and perfect for freestyle. Check out my short vid from the trip :)

Ooh good stuff makes me motivated to get better!! Looks like a great spot, would love to be doing those moves in a few years time... Now just need to master the back roll haha - damn my slow learning curve, but at least it's fun! Nice vid.

Nice work Kaatie. I just want to add positive comment to outbalance the usernam negativity. seriously this entire website forum is dragged down by a minority group of whingers and negative nancys who fire off negative sentiment at virtually anything. it kills the motivation for normal people to post their thoughts and restricts the positive flow of discussion on this forum. drainers. goes against everything the sports on this site are all about. moderating is like prohibition and defeats the point of a forum, but... well... what can ya do??
