Beauduc - Kitesurf Session 18

Like last time, another day of very strong winds in Beauduc (this time up, and maybe over, 35 knots). I was a bit overcharged with my 9m RRD, but that wasn't going to keep me off the water!







With Cyril, we spent all day in the water and were completely wasted by the end of the afternoon (but still kiting at sunset). The poor Remi, being a "shortstick" of 60kg, couldn't manage his kite on this strong conditions, so we have to thank him for all the photos, and the special rescue of my kite, when I accidentally and completely detached myself from it after a big fall...










To finish off in beauty, we were greeted by a group of pink flamingos getting off the spot and starting on the way back home...

Beauduc - Kitesurf Session 17

Diary of a crazy day: get up at 6 in the morning, go 350km south, kite all day with 25 knots, do 350km the other way around to come back home and go to bed dead tired and smiling at 1 in the morning...


Oh, and the dog stays strapped to the van all day long! "Say what?!? No way!"
