Christmas present to self

Postby apollo4000 » Tue Dec 25, 2018 2:54 pm

No matter how many hints I drop, I’ve never had a kitesurfing gift for Xmas so I’ve started buying my own.

This year, Suunto Ambit3 Peak

P.S. it’s not about the choice, just what you got

Trip to the Bahamas with my wife... She thought it was a good compromise. Awesome time fortunately we both love it there.

My birthday is near Christmas, so for the past three years I've consolidated them and asked for and received a Naish Pivot, got a new 2018 11m this year! Happy me!

Thx
