What a amazing family we have on here well done to all so far!

Done.
My son and I started kitesurfing earlier this year and Marc was one of first people to welcome us to the sport and give us some good advice. I am shocked and saddened by this freak accident. Our thoughts are with his family.

Done .
Going to pass the hat around up here at site and see if we can get a little more help.

Done.

Sincere condolences to Marc's loved ones.
I'm very new to kiting, and sadly I'll never meet Marc, but I'm truly moved, not only by the great generosity he showed, but the huge respect which has been shown within the kiting community. I hope when Milo grows up, he can read a copy of these forums and get a real sense of the sort of bloke his dad was and how he made this world a better place.
RIP Marc
(Dusta, I don't know you either but hats off to you for a great job)

Someone suggested I move this to keep all coldshot posts together

We Fein for a warm summer breeze
buckled by sand blasted knees
White caps flow through our dreams
in the arms of our queen
one with mother nature
a turn at a time
together
flowing so peacefully
or boosting sky high
With her we exist
she makes us feel whole
the call of the ocean
has such a strong hold
When the windy waves are on
it cannot be explained
the feeling that touches us
of forces that cannot be tamed
Today we mourn a lost soul
who felt what we feel
the dream... the stoke..... consumed him
his feeling was real
His love took his life
he will be remembered by all
every time we yahoo
when the freo doctors on call
So ride in peace old mate
cause we are riding for you
Whenever that wind blows
we will be thinking of you.

Rip coldshot

RIP Coldshot, Milo I am heartbroken for you, please remember what a legend your dad was and make us all proud. I am sure Marc's mates will always be there for you! Dusta you are doing an awesome job in very difficult circumstances. Thank you.

Done....I kited with Marc a few times but did not know him well. The last time was when my pump broke and as i walked towards his van he instinctively knew what i wanted and dug out his pump before i even asked him. Passionate kiter... I hope my small contribution helps.

condolences,done.

Done.

This tragedy made me very sad.
This could have happened to any of us.
Respect to the kite community for such a nice solidarity.

Next time I enter the water I will be thinking of you Marc.

Sincere condoleances to familiy & friends.
RIP

What a great legacy to pull everyone together like this. The money is a helpful token, but it's the love and support behind it that will give the strength needed for the family. From those of us that can't make the funeral, our thoughts will be with you all.

Done.

Well said pearl...yes it's great to see all the support out there in the kiting community...

My condolences to Marc's friends and family.
