Ironically I'm wearing a t-shirt that a friend gave me, can you please tell me what it means?
I would like to help you out with that one but it think I best leave it to Kamikuza or Tom I don't have a clue would be interesting though to find out

I’d also turn kite picture so it’s aligned properly with riders body. I’d expect a good big downloop going on there with kite pointing downward

A beautiful female silhouette with a foilboard held above hip and mast pointed out like a sword would be so sweet too.
No offense to unhooked wakestyle but foils are on the way to dominate the sport

You are right there the last thing I did in the first image was to invert the angle of the kite to try and fit the circle so I have put it back

Thanks, I'm not sure why that's a T-shirt though.
