How and where did you Learn?:
Afternoon intro lesson in DR while on a windsurfing trip.
Spent a week after that bodydragging on my own in Barbados with some board time. Then to Antigua for a nother lesson or two, some more lessons in Wellfleet. Settled into my home at WB after moving from Falmouth to Mashpee.
Favorite Session & Trips:
More recently: Chapin in the dead of winter,
Barbados downwinder.
In the past: kiting in Northeast Brazil in my second year of kiting when it was still somewhat unkown. In town, at the lagoons, Paracaru, especially Icaraizinho.
Renting a 4wd on black market and driving from Cambuco to Jeri on the beach, almost didn't make it.
Worst Kitemare:
Waking up in the ICU in Puerto Plata, all after a simple backroll gone wrong hours before the expected end of a two week kiting trip in Cabarete. I'll never be the same again. Now its all air and no spin. And I like it that way.
Do you like to ride snow or land?:
I go both ways.
How much gear have you trashed?:
Sold much more than I've trashed.
Favorite Spots:
WB, its home after all.
the rest of the Cape and SE mass.
Whats MASSkiting to you?:
A great way to meet up with kiters.
