Olympic Fever

Just add wind

The Olympic fever has hit Maui. Well, not really in the way you think. Lately, there have been a ton of kite racers coming here to train. The wind is consistent, and down towards the harbor, less wave action. I have been watching Adam Koch lately and it is incredible the distance he covers. The angles these guys go are a little unusual. You have to watch, and make sure they don't run you over. Yesterday, I saw the most spectacular crash, it was like NASCAR. He must have been going 40knots. So, get ready for the Olympics...not Vancuver but 2012 or 2016....they are coming.
