Been skimming pretty much my whole life. My roomates got me into kiting about 7 months ago. Been super stoked ever since. Still have alot to learn. This is a sick site!

Yo Shredpup!

Welcome to LTS Skim Brother! Glad you found us! Considering you have been only kiting for 7 months it looks like you are a quick learner. I imagine you are going to learn a lot more pretty quickly judging from those shots. Nice grab! :twisted:

Are you riding a Phase5? Looks like it with the green bottom. Looks like a nice buttery flat water spot. Where do you ride?

Keep up the nice work, and tell all your buddies that ride strapless to get on board. :idea:

Yes its a Zap but a carbon boomhower model. I ride for them and thats the model I like best for skimboarding. Im not sure what will work the best for kiting yet. Im at the University of North florida in jacksonville. That spot is Hugunaut park . Not sure how its spelled. My roomates and I are actually hosting a colligate contest next weekend(Oct 18th and 19th), should be really fun if anyone wants to come and support it. ShouIld be really fun whether there is wind or not. It will be held on 6th ave south, jacksonville beach.

Shredpup, you are stoked to ride at Hugenot. It's one of, if not the windiest riding spots in FL. In the winter, the waves are good in JAX beaches and I'm sure you will kick ass on a regular surfboard and a kite. Thanks for the photos. I just got a Phase 5 that looks exactly like yours.

Shredpup! Right on! 8)

Thats some DAMN GOOD skimkiting for 7 months!? :shock:
Was there much difficulty for you to transfer your (regular) skim-tricks to the same under kite-power?
~ just curious.

Hope the colligiate comp went well for you all.
