So i went over to Rhosneigr for the RHosneigr park jam. Benn Todd had build some unbelievable sliders and kickers for us to hit and had organised and amazing event.
Everything was sorted from an amazing camp site, food in the morning and evening, and a mental party for the saturday night which went OFF!!!!
On friday there was little to no wind so we started off by putting the flat bar and kicker in the water. We sessioned that behind the boat which was a little sketchy because of the choppy conditions.
On Saturday the sun was out and the wind was building. I started on a 13 fuel for a quick session before the obsticles came out to get used to riding finless and with bindings. Its been a while.
We then all chipped in to set up the sliders aand kicker, changing the angles to get it just right. Once that was done everyone got involved. Everyone started pretty skatey but after an hour we were all hitting the obsticles HARD.
I took a pretty harsh wiepout off the A frame managing to hit all 3 legs, as i was pretty overpowered on my 13. I then rode my 10 and had the perfect power.
At the end of the session we all voted for who we thought won different catagories.
I ended up winning the slider section, coming 2nd on the kicker, and 2nd overall to Dave Hastilow( big ups to him)
Pretty stoked considering ive never hit a slider with a kite.
Big thanks to Benn Todd, Kitty, and Max for putting on such and awesom event
