a sad day for the sport of windsurfing.

kiters with boardies over wetties...
... and poleys with yellow rashies over wetties.

i'm a bit confused....

They really are trying to make something out of nothing

Funny as

Haha - Brilliant.
The heading matches perfectly!

I would have loved to have seen a kiter come through and really show them how it is done. Like bees to honey is probably a nicer way of saying it. Did not see too many land it either. Made me smile for the morning though. Cheers

Thats pretty funny. The carnage in the background is gold. I thought the ones that bailed out mid jump were the best. "Screw this, im outta here!!!".

Ned settle down. Maybe say something constructive or relevant? Instead of abusing other people.

eh dim sim, the intent of the original quote would appear to ridicule these poleys for enjoying themselves doing their thing! Why be so negative about dudes doing it their way?

Always good to see crew enjoying what they're doing- there were so many of them too....

hey lovey that boat made a wave twice as big as anything i saw last time i went down your way

How many of you"crits" have actually tried a forward roll/loop on a windsurfer?
Non issue on a kite. Different story on a windsurfer.

That's rad

Like pole boarding lemmings really. Only 2 or maybe 3 gumbies actually landed (or even tried to) the effort!

How many kiter's land their "rad" moves on a regular basis? On planetgetfunky, it seems that you can attempt your first backroll or frontroll, kiteloop or even waterstart, if and ONLY if you know you will succeed. So much for giving it a go regardless of what others think hey?

Lighten up geezer.. I am sure they were having fun (and that is great for them) I just couldn't help but notice how few were even trying to land, what I am sure is a pretty tricky manouvre. They did appear like over-keen lemmings all flinging off a wake, that is observation not criticism matee.

Of course everything is easy on planet getfunky and there are always buxom lasses to help pack away my kite and pop an ice cold beer into my hand after a perfect session. BTW, sorry geezer, but planet getfunky is totally booked out this season and please observe there are strictly no lemmings allowed.
