The North shore of Hawaii is the birthplace of surfing. Where heroes gather and legends are made. Home to Cabrinha kites. Infamous for massive winter swells. In the first act of this kitesurfing short feature we see how easy a love affair with the ocean or with a pretty girl begins. II, Fade from black and white to full color. And III, has the goods wrapped in barrels of fun. Its intoxicating lure calling us out to ride.

Probably the best promo vid so far. Chapter 111 was hot.

Wow, see the huge whale in the background at 1030 while the kiter is on the wave.

Agreed best promo ever. Damn they are good riders.

I find surf kiting to be a bit of a bore to watch.

This is coming from a bloke who does nothing but... I love doing it, it feels great but its repetitious and the natural positioning of the body is ruined by the kite, squaring up the shoulders and ruining the aesthetic of riding in flow with the wave..

What i just watched is basically the pinnacle of the sport yet i turned it off about half way but i could watch Kelly or even better Rob for hours on end....

I remember when coming together came out and i remember thinking that they should have named it 1000 frontside hacks...
Not much seems to have changed between then and now....

^^^^^That's a bit harsh!^^^^^^^^

Great vid reo. Thanks for posting. I wasn't bored at all. There were some decent slabs, and those ridiculously sticky feet that you and Keahi have.
Cheers

Loved the shark at 11:24 and "What the hell!" jumping over something big at 11:28.

3 minutes in and all I had seen was some boring try hard artsy intro...
Keahi is a shredder, get Elliot (ACL productions) back at Cab and make a sick video for this guy.
