Brooke arrived home late Friday night and kiteboarding was the last thing that he was thinking of doing on the weekend. Brooke has an amazing record of jinxing the wind but this weekend would be different. We woke to a decent East wind blowing about 15 knots. Brooke and I started out to be joined by Don and Jamie. The video below has video from that first morning session. The pictures were taken by Terri in the afternoon session where Jamie and Brooke were well powered on the big kites. This was one of the steadiest, most consistent days that we have had at home in years.
What a great day!!

Hatteras May 2011
We arrived on Saturday morning at 9am with a decent wind blowing. We managed to kite for about 3 hours. Jamie and Don used 14 and 13m kites. I spent the entire time on a 17m kite.
Here is a video shot using the GoPro HD Hero camera using the Naish surfboard and the the Waroo 17m kite.

Sunday was supposed to be completely dead. The wind managed to come up for about an hour in the afternoon. Here is a video of that session using a 17m Waroo kite and Slingshot Misfit board.

Challenger II Headcam
On a beautiful winter day I flew C-IJBA from the Carp Airport (CYRP) to home. The video below is segments for the return trip from behind the house in Constance Bay to the airport in Carp. The video was taken with a GoPro HD video camera on a headcam mount.
