Maui Mini Movie: Bones Brigade

Ok Windies this is one I whipped out. There is a lot of water shots and different perspectives going on, the original title was "altered states". Toast and I were going for some back and forth viewpoints. Each shot had a different angle. The Jonnyboy shot at the end was a classic. I heard about Jim Bones and thought I would lend a hand, so I changed the title and asked Caprice to do a short talk about his situation. So, many things can happen in a week when it's blowing 40 all the time. Aloha and good luck

Why I like

Check out this video. This is why I like strapless surfboard better than strapped. There is so much more area to grow. It is unbelievable watching the straplees 3's. Sick! Aloha and Good Luck

What I Got

I don't got a lot. Destiny has brought me here with my wife and dog in tow. I got a nice place, older cars, kites and boards, lots of boards. My loving wife helps me tend to it all. I also got a beach, camera and some people who are starting to believe in my shots. I only have to walk out in front of my office everyday to get the best kiters in the world. I got great surf and great wind most of the time and I am blessed. I love to make Maui Mini Movies and I am stoked to give them to you. I am an open book, so if you like something or don't shoot me an email and I will try harder. "Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life, or do you want to come with me and change the world?" my mentor once told me from a quote from Steve Jobs. Well, I already sold sugar water. Aloha and Good Luck

Maui Mini Movie: Kite Porn

Here you go...the latest and greatest.

Strapless in Oahu

Love to see the boys over there still throwing some hard turns strapless. I know I am a purest, so anytime I see a hard tail being thrown, a lip being cracked or some sort or air on the wave or out the back I keep a keen eye out for straps. If I see anything that resembles straps the move loses it's potency. I think that straps have there place, but not after April and not before October. Never where straps before Labor Day. Aloha and Good luck

Shawn's New Move 2

SO, it was a day not so many like many others. An afternoon where the wind cranks up to 30+, Toast cracking 50 to 60 foot airs, and Shawn Richman showing up for the late session. I had heard a couple of days earlier Shawn had done a triple cork. Now, my buddy Peter and I had to get it on film. Not the best day to shoot pics, but not so bad for a quick video of the newest move in kiting. So, here you go, check it and leave a comment to suggest a the trick name. Aloha and good luck

Jump Around

Ok...Today wasn't the windiest day of the year, but it was the right direction for some super big boosts. I thinks I hit the 35ft mark on a double bounce jump. If you don't know what a double bounce is...here is a MKBR definition: 1: A double bounce is when you boost above the pro pool trees hitting a second pocket of wind giving you an elevator bounce up an extra five to ten feet resulting in a tingling sensation in your testicles. Doubles bounces occur thirty feet or higher. 2: Jumping extra big and top looping to stop your jumps regression and double bouncing back up. I was riding and jumping with Toast today, and here is a vid of him jumping 72 feet....I wonder where my testicles would end up after 50 feet? Aloha and Good Luck.
