The Most Beautiful Kitefoil Ride I've Done!
This 2024 season the winds where excellent for Kitefoiling on Lake of two Mountains, Oka National Park, Quebec, Canada which gave me the chance to practice and progress.
Here is a very short video of The Most Beautiful Kitefoil Ride I've Done!
From Oka National Park, it is possible to kitefoil with most wind directions but the exception of North winds:
East winds from ``La Grande Plage`` Bay 10 km long and West winds from ``La Plage de la Crete``Bay 3 km long. North winds are offshore from both beaches and it is better to ride in ``Anse à L'Orme`` Bay or Vaudreuil Bay on the same Lake.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
La saison 2024 était une très belle saison de vent pour le Kitefoil sur le Lac des 2 Montagnes. Cela m'a permis de me pratiquer plus souvent et progresser. Cette vidéo est un résumé des plus belles journées de Kitefoil.
En partant du Parc National d'Oka, il est possible de faire du Kitefoil avec la plupart des directions du vent à l'exception du vent du Nord. Les Vent de direction EST sont favorable dans La Baie de La Grande Plage qui a une longueur totale de 10 km et les vent de direction Ouest dans la Baie de La Plage de La Crête de 3km de long. Le vent de direction Sud-Ouest ou Sud-Est sont On Shore sur leurs plages respectives. Les Vent de direction Nord-Est et Nord-Ouest sont Off-Shore et il est plus sécuritaire d'aller les prendre en face soit dans la Baie de Vaudreuil ou La Baie de L'Anse à l'Orme.

``Foil Away` is a short video to help getting started kitefoiling in 3 wind directions I advise to start with: On Shore Wind because it is the safest even though more difficult to reach deep water because of the body drag and Side Shore Wind the easiest but could be risky to lose the board which can go away of the beach! Combining the first 2 situations of wind would give us: Side On Shore wind...

    So this is admittedly a nitpick, but FIS regulations allow 188 cm GS skis at the FIS level. The 193 cm requirement only comes into play for Continental Cup (NorAm), Junior Championships, and above. They used to allow 188s for men all the way up to the World Cup level, but they eliminated that option at the same time as they reduced the minimum radius from 35 -> 30 meters. Great job to Philip getting down and getting points! Rock-hard FIS courses like that are a whole different universe.

    • @georgeskassir6117
      @georgeskassir6117 11 місяців тому

      The information you are providing is excellent and more precise than the broader point I gave! You are right to say that if Philip wanted to race on his first year with 188 cm GS and 157 cm SL he could. I saw other first year athletes racing on 188cm and 157 cm! Because he has the choice at his age 16, Philip tested a lot of skis last year of different sizes and brands and he chose GS 193cm and SL 165cm !!! Actually Philip was already skiing U16 in SG with 193cm GS and loved them and later during the season he tested the 188 cm so he told me, Please I want another same ski! Luckily 193cm is the rule for NorAm(Continental) and it is playing to his advantage even though he is not their yet! Philip loves longer skis!
