If there is one bit of advice to blowthroughs it would be to listen to and use local knowledge...otherwise risk getting eaten......just like at Woodies, there are monster jelly fish that will suck you in through their nose.
I am hiding out on the river these days, not kiting or doing much of anything because I blew out my back.....big cry. Tues. night softball great line triple run did it....this sucks, you do something good for the team and you pay a dreadful price (we lost and there was no one on base).
So what does a injured kite surfer do when stuffed........take pictures. You all think you got great shots of your selves..............I've got some good ones of others..........the river is always good for a laugh............not.
One sad gruezi signing out because no more softball.........but hey kiting is ok, silly pussy sport and where it should be, because ain't about the team. Team sports are just so much better, even if as lame as ball. Real men are on teams, kite in teams and look out for each other. So many kiters are soooooooooo self absorbed that it makes me sick.......................and makes me sad.
One good thing today was the free riding kiter who retrieved a board and dragged in a struggling kiter who had gear failure...........you were my hero today
The rest of the lot of competent kitesurfers (many instructors among them) who just ignored the whole scene of a kiter in trouble..............make me sick.
Oh yea......we did have a run away kite at Melville today and the other heros were the wind surfers and kiters at Peli.............you guys were tops too.
