Sweet session in paridise island

hello kiters,

i hope you'd a good spring time ? especially for thoses who got the chance to stay on the snow and i hope the summer will be good for you all on water like here in French Polynesia.

It's been already almost 2 mounths we are back to the island and the conditions have been perfect, lot's of good wind because the winter season is coming also with the big swell from the south. i had the chance for the 3rd time in few years to get my favorite wave, it's the longest and fastest waves i know on reef brake, sooo fast that you can not even make a roller, the section are to fast for surfing, means i'm always pretty alone out there just with the dolphins who try to race me , i was using the 15m Edge, perfect the race, it's so fast, and on the go pro video i did, me and Titaua where using most of time the 11 et 9m C4, which is a sick kite to train my unhook style, it reminds me a lot like my Frenzy on the snow, i just love it now.

Now the plan is to wait for the huge swell to get the best of it, and my next snow session will be soon in NZ if the snow decide to fall.

right now i few days off, so i've to go to the garden it's almost like a jungle out there, mamamya.

so enjoy the vid and bon vent from Polynesia

ciao

Waves session

hello everybody,

well this is why we love this area in French Polynesia, the trade wind is just perfect for kiting, you can easily reach many different island by boat or by plane, then you'll have so much choice for your style of riding. Once again the lagoon is enormous with many things to ride on the way like ,super flat water, jump over rocks or coconut trees , riding around small motu (island) with perfect white sand beaches and you can aslo ride with sharks, i tell you they are faster than you. sometimes when you ride near the outside reef you can also see some whales jumping , that's just amazing to see.

so since two days the wind got lighter and between the garden, my tomatos i got time to finish this video with some of the waves we can ride. as you can we still riding with our small board, because most of the time those spots are reachable only if you jump over the reef, so you can imagine with a surf board , you'll loose some fins before you ride it.

tomorrow the wind shoold come back for my 9m edge , i hope. that's what Mr windguru said, so it's freestyle time again, yepaaaaaaaaaaaaa

bon vent

riding the Zephir

Hello boys and girls,

i don't know what's happening but here on the island the wind never stop this year, it's a crazy good season and it's not finish yet, you should come over and enjoy our spot, link

We are mostly riding our edge , but few times i rode the Zephir 17m in small waves and near the reef in the lagoon where the water is just flat and glassy. it's such an easy kite for this size, with my bigger board i can ride i guess at 10 knots.

i did 8 km downwind in the turquoise laggon, then i saw Titaua was following me by the road for the security, so i decide to stop by a really small village call Tefareriii, so from the water i just jump onto the football field then Titaua gave me my longboard (skateboard), so i played for a while, then suddently all the youngs came over, i was reallu fun to be with them, they wanted me to jump everywhere.

I tell you that, you defenetly should get the Zephir

thanks Ozone for this perfect toy again

Two days ago on west coast

ouaaaaa, we finally got the north wind, which allow us to ride the west coast where there's some of the sickest waves. so the swell was south ouest with north wind. That spot you need to lunch from the boat so it's pretty technical but we stayed tehre for 6hours non stop, and had a little picnic on the boat when Titaua was kiting some beautifull barrel with no surfers that day, it was just magic.

too bad this is the kind of spot you 're waiting for 3 mounths have only one day session. Can't wait for the next one

i'll keep you in touch if windguru predict something good for next mounth.

yepaaaaaaaaa link
