South Lake Tahoe, CA - Here comes me

Hey, my name is Weston

I grew up Skiing, and I push myself to try new things to keep my body and mind entertained.

Recently I've been Snow-skating, but the snow is melting (in-between blizzards) and summer is coming. I live in Lake Tahoe, CA and I realize I don't spend as much time in the water as I used to. So I thought to myself. . . . . What's going to be waking me up and getting myself down to the shore and into that cold glacial lake? The front page of my local Newspaper had a snow-kiter on the front page on skis I was hooked.

:cool2: :cool2: :cool2:

I plan on taking kiting as far as the wind will carry me on land, snow and in the water. If your ever coming out this way drop me a line, and we can drop in some pow pow or some waves. :jump:

I'll be self taught due to the fact there is nobody to teach within hundreds of miles. so wtf If I can teach skiing professionally, I'll use some of my same techniques, Stay safe, Pay attention, and have FUN. If anyone has any advice they'd like to share on kite flying, board control and relation to other board sports, SAFETY, and equipment, I'd be happy to hear (read).

"Because knowledge is power!"

LF 2010 influence looks so much more bad-ass then the 2011 so if anyone has any deals or knows where to look please I've searched and searched
