I still have no idea how BWD was holding down that sail, let alone slashing the lip and sending spray! :shock: :shock: :shock:

That look like a jumping fest/paradise. (perfect ramps, cant believe you guys are spending more time riding them as oppose to jumping them, to each their own I guess)

Doesnt seem sketchy at all.

Where are the agro surfers ??? None seen in this video.

Had to wait to post till Winddoc had a good session or he would have been suicidal over missing that for a meditation retreat. There were jumps teabag but not many with wind that high. Kites were grounded till late in session.

YouTube had a message saying "Your video seems to be shakey [yeah, well you try holding a phone steady in 40 knots while shivering uncontrollably :roll: ] ... Do you want us to stablize it?". So I agreed and its being processed now. Don't know if it will make a noticeable difference, but these kinds of aids sure are making it easier and easier. 150 views in 24 hours, shows how much of a wind drought we are in!

Not much an issue with this video, but for future reference allowing youtube to reprocess it kills the video quality and does funny things with the frame rates/increases flicker.

the other thing you might notice is the frame gets stabilized and your text will shake all around.

Thanks so much for taking and posting this video. It really gives one a good feeling of the location and conditions that day. I wish I was there too!
