Big Mama shots one after another.....

March 29, 2010

Big Mama shots one after another.....the shots are from various days.

The Wainman Rabbit gang has arrived at Belmont Shore thanks to Kite Naked. Check out the Kite Naked store at, http://www.kitenaked.com

When you see the "Big Mama" on the beach it doesn't look that big. But it pulls like a freight train and is steady as a rock, even in 18-20 mph.

Rudy usually rides a 7 or 9 but today he's taking out the Wainman 15 to give it a spin.

Rudy had no problem going out in low wind and on a very small board.

Another one of our local riders, Dong, went out in very light wind and had a blast. After a little whild the wind came up and he took out his 9m kite.

Gabor Vagi was another kiter that went out on Big Mama. He usually kites at Seal Beach (and many other spots) but today he was at Belmont...and it was only blowing about 10 mph. It didn't seem to matter because he was able to get out and kite.

When Gabor came in Chris Gatewood (Mr. Kite Naked) grabbed his board and went out too.

Chris and Gabor both out on Wainman's.

Dan Corbett, who usually rides a 12m EH kite took out Big Mama and had a ball using his EU-2 135. Today there were other kiters out too.

Then he came in and took out my directional board just for a change-up since his foot strap broke. Yes he was jumping, doing back rolls, and jibes too. What can't this kid do????

One day I went out on my directional and thought about going behind Chaffee Island. Then I hit a small log and decided this was not the day to try it...maybe tomorrow.

Two additional Wainman kites available at Kite Naked are the Boss (12m) and the Smoke (9m)

Two of my beach buddys, who are also part of the Rabbit gang at Belmont, are John Bonetti (left) and Kyle Van (center). Come down to the end of the Claremont ramp and say "Hello", meet the team and demo one of the Wainman kites.

Saturday Michael D. took out B.M. and discovered it was not a one pump system. Sorry you can't have everything. Michael did have one of his best days jumping though.

"Harley" Mike was down also so he took out BM. One of the first things I noticed was he was passing me on his Litewave board. He loved the feel of the kite. He said "Now I have to sell my other kite and I'll buy a Big Mama.

Mike Noel one happy kiter after the session on the 15.
