Mormon kiteboarders- Who needs em?

by **jason morton** » Thu Sep 20, 2007 3:51 pm

We do of course. Especially if you want to have someone to kite with. While these string pulling brethren are absent from most sabbath day sessions they comprise a good portion of our kiting community. We may differ religiously, but not recreationally. We love you guys!! These guys choose the right (CTR) and kite the right(KTR).

Team KTR-
Kenny (kite bishop material)
Mike R. ?
Charles (recent family man and creating his kingdom)
Matt D. (dangerouly close to being ex-communicated from the Utah kite community)
Spencer (looking for the one forever and all eternity)
Nate (who knows sacrifice)
Jake?
Jon M. ?
Jeff M. (kite missionary)
Jared (what happened to this guy?)

Anyone else I forgot?

Jon M. Currently trying to convince his bishop that his wife is a widow. If doesn't have family obligations can be found kitng when it's windy.
Jeff M Good boy but father is trying to covert to KOS (kiting on Sunday)

Problem may be that when KOSer's go to heaven there will be perfect 11M wind, big Swell, warm temps and kites galor but no pumps.
think about it you HEATHENS

Kite Bishop! Jason, thanks for the honor. I doubt I will ever be an LDS Bishop, so Kite Bishop works for me. My calling is first counselor in the Elder's Quorum in my ward.

I can confirm that Mike Rossberg is LDS as well. We have been friends since high school. Mike is a faithful Latter Day Saint, but I am afraid he is apostizing from wind sport and is a hard core cyclist these days.

I appreciate that we have a tight knit community. We come from all different backgrounds, but we all share a love of the wind, water, and snow. Those are all gifts from God. Worship the God of nature how you may. I feel close to God at church and on the water.

I'm hoping Jesus keeps calling Jason and telling him that we are suppose to be fellowshipping on the sabbath! You are a legend!

Strange topic. Let me set the record straight. I've only opted out of windsearching for the summer. I'm starting to get the itch for a good a blow. I was almost ready to pack up gear and head for MM19 this week. Bring on the autumn storms.

Brother, glad to have you back in the flock...

God made beer, wine, and women too. I love being from the catholic side. I think some of the riders also appreciate the green stuff. We indeed have a lot to be gratefull for. Sundays are a great day to show appreciation in church, on water, mountain top, with fam and freinds.

Um, actually, truth be told, there's quite a bit of the faith, (even LDS), in the Morton family too. Not that he's ever set foot in church. In Jason's case he worships in the great church of the outdoors. He's very faithful in that regard. As for bishop, I'd say bishop of beer would be his calling.

The question I really want an answer for is the following:

If I go to church, any church, will I stop getting skunked at MM19?

You know what will happen, it will only be epic conditions when you are in church and can't get it!

I can see Jason as a robed fryer of old that protects the barrels of beer, with free drink as reward. yeah, todays "bishop of beer".

my question is: who should i call when it's windy on a sunday?

by **RickHeninger** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 1:02 pm

Beautiful topic! And well ridden...

Um... Charles... Where have you been?! Matt D... Even greater question, actually, he's getting a Phd... Which I've heard can occupy some time...

But Emmanuel, you got an outloud laugh from me on that comment on MM19!

Balance is my justification...

Three sundays per summer... But who knows, life can change on a dime and change your whole paradigm!

AS a mormon I've always said that Sunday is the day of rest . . . Do all the playing you can on saturday . . and the rest on Sunday.
