Faster than a speeding seagull

More powerfull than a 35 Knot Gust

Able to leap tall Navigation Markers in a single bound

Its RICHO !!!!!

Glad to hear you are back on Earth after your wild ride in the air, minus your harness Richo. Good to hear you recovered your kite and lines OK.

See Ya - Fitzy Gold Coast OZ

most impressive. richo's harness jumped higher and his kite relaunched itself more easily than when he was actually part of the contraption. we all waited in anticipation while richo paddled aimlessly around searching for a set wave to take him into the beach. unfortunately no riviera 65's came past. richo, how did you get your kite out of the mangroves, one 'K' offshore with nightfall fast approaching?

He commandeered one of those bright yellow racing ducks Buuuuuuuttt didn't actually go straight out and retrieve the kite. He firstly conned the owner into about a fifteen minute high speed thrash around the broadwater before finally retieving the soggy kite and bar just as darness set in.

Lucky escape !!!!

Holy crap guys, my old man was telling me about your session. Wish i could of been there, hmmmm actualy maybe i dont.
I was lucky enough to have a fairly decent kite at 'the red barge' even though it was outgoing tide the wind was much better then at sheer, i saw Sydney (from new cal) really juiced on a 12m (good 20-25kn) do a mad boost then as he's coming down, he was about 1m off the water, and throws a fast kiteloop with the kite above him just as a gust hits him, fkn up he goes agian. just like adam koch 13sec air but with a kiteloop, crazy
oh and moti boosted over a dolphin as it jumped out of the water, but yeah, no carnage.

Looks like a south easter Paulio. We could ride KFC for smoother water or organise a downwinder to Shearwater. What do you think??

Ooooorrrr maybe even the pin. Let me know.
