Nice 20-25 knot session at Columbia. Decent swells. A few mishaps incl busted Q line, death spiral. Then later my spreader bar coming out of the clip on one side (totally my fault) then getting launched and landing on my elbow in 8" of water, then losing my kite and spreader bar then recovering both of them. Alex got my kite but hindenberged his onto the beach. Thanks to Snapper I waded in the shore at dusk and unbeleivably found my spreader bar. An eventful day, might have overdone it a bit. Reinforces why I am very leary of onshore winds. The two mishaps I had could have been fatal.
