				Rachel and I were there this day. We were sitting on the hill right behind the guys on the right at 1:47. WE got a lot of the same video footage as you're seeing here. That Boujma guy was throwing down some sick tricks with directional changes. Push loop into forward loop. Back loop with sail flip mid loop into a forward. Saw a lot of pros swim for their gear that day as well as breaking multiple masts/sails. It was cool to see in person!

				What was the thing that they had on their boards that measured their jumps and would it work for snowkiting? If so where can I get one.

				Get one Fred! We can log the data from how far we got dragged after losing our bearings mid trick.
