You can download winamp and it should play AVI files. I'll try to convert it into a WMV file tomorrow.

Hmmm I just opened it in Windows Media Player and it works fine. Maybe try saving it to your computer first (use SAVE and not OPEN)?

yeah, works fine for me that way. Man, that place looks PERFECT for kiting. Nice flat water between the sets, perfect size waves...

Kite Kook> Yeah, Carlos is a popular kiter spot. Nice forgiving waves, and lots of room to work with. I highly suggest that you and everyone else head down there. Late April-October is prime time with the summer having more consistent south swell with less reliable wind. Good for surfing.

For those that still can't get the video to work, try downloading the XviD codec here and then it should work in any player: http://www.xvidmovies.com/codec/ (select the XviD codec v1.1.0 for Windows). I'm pretty sure you need the XviD codec and not the DivX, but I may be wrong.

Again awesome sailing MikeC!!
