Thanks to a little Virus, I got stuck at home for the winter 2020 in the southern Hemisphere.
I have been a migratory specie for many years, and winter is almost a novelty for me. (One that I would rather avoid)
Thick wetsuits and stormy sessions have been the norm although temperatures haven’t been too bad. There have been some wild sessions but so far we have survived this winter 2020. The winter of our discontent wasn’t so bad, as soon we got to kiteboard without breaking the law…
Visitors
I got a surprise visit from some Airush riders Oswald Smith and Kyle Cabano and it was a lot of fun showing them around. Having them around gave me the possibility of trying out some of the more gnarly wave spots with the perceived safety of having experienced riders in the water.
Cannon Rocks holds a lot of memories with Ozzy. He was a regular competitor in his formative years at the Cannon Rocks kiteboarding classic so it was great to catch up. Cannon Rocks also showed off by giving us wind from both prevailing directions. That is pretty unusual this time of the year.
Kyle did a splendid job with media. (You can follow his Instagram account here )
Here is a little Go pro clip from myself and photographs from Kyle, but there is more to come.
I look forward to the next visit!
