Indeed, happy New Year to All!
May your launches be gentle and your jumps hot, not the other way round.
May you find uncrowded beaches and solid cross-shore 20 knot winds.
May jellyfish, crocodiles, sharks and other beasts look the other way as you body-drag back to your board.
May the beginners kite safely (and pull their safety's when they need to).
May the women keep getting into the sport.
May the twirly tricks of the young punks get sicker.
May the wave crew score clean swell lines.
May the smiles on the faces of the soul kiters get broader

May we all enjoy the wind and the waves and the beaches with respect for each other and for this planet that provides such a great water playground.
Peace from Magnetic Island.
