For ten years now I have been cursing that wind. Yeah, year after year, at any time of the year it can strike. I’ve called it the “devil wind” and “the breath of Satan” more times than I care to recall. Right again I’m a surfer, and it’s been my life. 32 years ago I received my first real surfboard and have made my life revolve around the Ocean. I also thought that surfing could progress no further, or, not much further than where it currently is. Let’s face it the guys who lead the way in surfboard riding are doing maneuvers that are insane to watch.
But now, after my last island hop off Bali a little while back my eye’s finally opened and I saw what a couple of Pro Kite Surfers could do to a wave. Riding totally conventional type 5’10” surfboards with foot straps, and using KITE POWER. I’ve got stacks of photo evidence of this new break through in KITE SURFING. Plus there’s going to be heaps of other info and photos on some of the better locations already being accessed on and around Bali. Earlier this year I also escorted a World Ranked WIND SURFER by the name of VIDAR JENSEN who was another (at first) surfer that didn’t think there was enough wind to make it all happen…. Your going to be seeing quite a bit of footage from that trip as we get this page rolling along.
Yeah for ten years that wind has been bugging me… but now I finally know what it’s meant for!
