Got spanked several times today, released my QR on two different occasions throughout the session.
Winded myself, somehow slammed onto the water after a jump, 1st Quick release. After recovery, half hour later got chewed up in the impact zone, 2nd Quick release.
Fellow kiter picked up my board in the surf/ out going tide.
Another kiter dragged me to a sand bank. Kite got a good washing in the surf.
Spent more time in the water than on the water today. Feel battered and bruised tonight. Apparently the wind is going to be twice as strong tomorrow...WAHOO!

Glad to hear your OK, a few beers for the kiters that saved you & your gears ass goes a long way.

Just a heads up for newbies......with a big swell and a run out tide, Happy Valley can and has claimed lives.
