Lets play a game of who am I?

I'm experienced, my knowledge is great and I unhook. Unlike all you old sailers I'm young, not young as in Ian or that pesky 14yo who beat me, but still young. And I have big balls.

Prizes awarded...

Wouldnt call him pesky. Hes 28 now and pretty well known.


*Notice how i didn't skull a can of hateorade and fly off the handle like a $2 shop tennis racket. Told you you could learn a thing or 2 from me.
I also didnt go into a rant about how he was the deadliest assassin in the east and was going to murder you in your sleep, for this tragic injustice you have just commited.

Yea i reckon I want to know what happened from 2008 - 2013 probably did one those things bands do where they get new identitys and release albums and see if they still got it. He was race director for heaps of **** abroad pretty cool


Still i would be a bit pissed off if i was ian. "Invent kitesurfing" and first thing anyone writes about me is being beaten by a kiwi in my own country at my own sport that i had invented, way back in 1999


he says here that he got the first kitesurfing rig into australia in 1996 and taught himself

Then it says here... en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiteboarding who actually invented kitesurfing and it was a good 20 YEARS before 1996

Why so mean buddy? Be nice! It can be hard to do when you're cranky, but it's better. I suggest go for a kite, go as hard as you can for as long as you can. Eat sleep repeat, and don't log in to Seabreeze. Be patient, turning the ship around takes time

theDoctor said.. Kitesurfers have become a bunch of dangerous flogs because there's less instructors like Ian.
Any causehethinkshesthesheet can teach themselves and their armtoright boyfriend to kite.
What's seriously lacking is etiquette and (un)common (needs to be drilled into your thick skull) sense...
I'm pointing at you here fatso, you useless prick

yep ..getting pounded in the middle of the swan river, crashing into swarms of jellyfish, with this mad, intense looking lunatic, screaming out orders over the louder screaming jet ski's engine... thinking "wtf have I done here.."

was so exciting learning to kite and then to get it. Sometimes I think we forget what a great water sport it is as how lucky we are. Just to cruise along the water...well I do anyhow.
