Yesterday, St Francis Yacht Club was hosting a competition in the Bay area. I was lucking enough to have a friend of mine driving me on his boat (Formula F280, fast twin engines boat!) to watch the competition from the sea. Also gave me the opportunity to check what kind of shooting can be done from a boat at this spot.

Wind was pretty soft, the guys had to work their kites quite hard at some point.

I would not be surpised to get a call from Fredstem, I do not think he has shots like these ones !

Trying to forgot last friday's body drag session (my attempt to practice self-rescue at the end went wrong: I did not worked my lines well and ended-up being strapped in the lines and dragged by the kite, hopefully it was only about 4m of lines, and I stayed calm enough to get my knife and cut 2 of the lines ! - by the way, great learning!)...

I took advantage of a business trip to Orlando to go to Tampa.

Much better seats, Floor, row 10. Do you know what they say about better seats ?

Less space to dance, but better pictures!

Sound was a bit crap, especially in the beginning (Robert could not hear himself, Simon had Bass problems all along), and lots of echoe... but I survive. Very similar programme compare to San Jose, a little shoter on the Encore (still 3, but the last one was shorter).

Again, feels like a hundred years, but so good!
