Kited my first time since moving back to FL & hurting my shoulder in Jan. Great to be in the waves and no wetsuit. I will definitely miss the DC & Strawberry sessions and of course the Wasatch crew. Hope you guys have a great summer!

Hey Kevin, who am I going to hang out with on weekdays when it's usually just you and me there? Did you try to find a replacement before you moved away? Not very considerate of you. Just kidding, (sort of).

Sorry Ralph, I should have talked to you first! I feel like I had just figuered out the right program, flyfish, SUP, kite! Anybody ever heard of an alligator proof suit as I am super close to many lakes, however becoming gator bait has me a little concerned;)

Kevin,

I visited Orlando last Fall and had a session at Cocoa Beach. I did a 10 mile downwinder that ended up being pretty much a port tack the whole way. It was awesome slashing waves, cruising in the whitewater inches from the beach. I hope you are loving it!

Gator bait? Spent a lot of time in Florida, did a bunch of open water dx swimming in gator or shark waters (never said I was smart...)... Um, try to NOT FALL DOWN. When you do, get up quick. Also, swimming at least, try not to be the slowest. Tail end Charlie seems to look more tasty. And don't smell good. I'm just sayin' ...

Hey Peter"Warren"Miller :) keep the videos coming! I'm the one that needs tips from you, it was awsome to see you progress so fast. Just joking about the gator suit, you won't catch me in 99% of the lakes around here, some of the private lakes have potential though.
Kenny, Definitely waiting on a good day to make some laps!
