    During our annual trip to Hatteras, North Carolina, our crew tries a homemade wake winch, watch kiters get some big air at the REAL slick, and enjoy lots of kitesurfing and winging. Laurie kites again for the first time since breaking her ankle four months ago.

    That winch is sick, the operator is very handsome and well dressed. You should get people to ride park features with it and do a tow up with the 2 line ktie. Looks like a hooot!!!

    For your light wind days, you all need to get longboards and learn to surf. OBX pretty much always has waves somewhere and they're better when there's no wind. Lots of fun!

    Greats that you are up and running again!
    Had the same exact injury last November and luckily was back on the water maybe 11 weeks after the surgery.
    Great to see it turned out well for you as well.
    You'll see, your ankle is gonna get better continously.

    Please tell us which is the best place to rent a house for kiting in summer at Cape Hatteras? Frisco, Avon, Salvo? Thank you ++++

    • @OurKiteLife
      @OurKiteLife  19 днів тому

      We don’t usually go in the summer but looking at wind statistics, most of the wind is S-SW during that time of year. Would recommend Avon or Salvo, sound side.
