Niiiiiiiiicccceeee! I can't seem to get round the extra 180 degrees to land that one. Thinking too much about the rotation and not getting enough height off the pop seems to be the obvious issue. Ah well - will keep on trying!

What does land blind mean? And how is a blind judge distinguishable from an unhooked twirlybird, or even from the basic wiggly-puff-melon?!?!?

Sorry - didn't realise I was required to do a full write-up of what I managed to do to share the stoke with other kiters. Tough crowd!
What I managed to do was land my raileys to blind and then complete the surface pass and ride-away. Only succeeded on my right tack. Happy to claim it as my kiting mates were in the water watching and cheering me on. Seems some people are still able to share the stoke with their mates.

Can't comment on the blind judge 3 but I will let you know if/when I land one

Hope you find something to cheer you up wishy.

No you don't need to worry about full write ups. Just log in as someone else and then give yourself credit eg, I, 'Zowie', saw Howie do the most amazing blind judging of a tit-dangling chomp today!! What stoke bro!!
