Hey Man, Nice Video.
What water temps are you guys kiting in there? I have been watching your videos all winter and thinking I need to get a better wetsuit or drysuit and lower my personal minimum water temp to kite.

I love your vid.
Silver haired ripper. Awesome example to the bulk of the kiting demographic that yes, you can do more than mow and boost.
Sometimes the homegrown vids are just IDK... fresh enough that you cant help feel kinda amped to ride just from watching it.
Keep shredding.

Ah thanks guys, nice to get feedback!
The water temp is around 4degrees I believe, but the wind chill lately has made it feel a lot lower, even had to resort to gloves (I never wear them normally)
What does IDK mean
ps pixelpedro sadly the van was a photoshop a mate did!

Wow! 4 degrees...Burrrr! You guys are hard as woodpecker lips.
Guess I need to just put on every peice of neoprene I have and give it a try.
Also, you should be sponsored by Dynabar after that video. I was thinking about getting one before, but after seeing this, it is on my must have list. Maybe they will buy you the cool van if you just put "Dynabar below the Blast.
IDK is text speak for I don't know. I didn't know either until my kids texted it to me and I had to ask.

Great video - Dimitri should ship you some free stuff for showing everyone what that renegade can do it the waves. Was some of that shot with the short lines he was sending out with the renegade last year? The turns looked like they were tight and lit.

Yeh I genuinely love the Renegade's and the Dynabar also, awesome combo.
Could never go back to a fixed harness now that's for sure!
We sell both but really believe in what we sell or else we'd just use somin' else (and I've tried lots of kites)
I mainly use the standard length lines..22m but also have a bar with 18m which is my favorite tbh, I think most the sessions on the vid were on the standard 22m lines.
I know Epic now have these instock also but the 15m lines work great too especially with the bigger Renegades.
Ah IDK that!
