Naish Photo Shoot
Arrived at Kanaha yesterday to find Team Naish rigging and prepping for a photo shoot, including the Man himself, Robby Naish. Skies were pretty overcast and winds pretty light, but Robby was out blasting around on a prototype sail and one of his Hybrids. The water was extremely flat and he was hauling a**.
Later in the day the skies cleared, the wind built and Team Naish headed upwind for the photo shoot, complete with helicopter. Part of the shoot focused on 10 or 11 year old Kai Lenny, already a sponsored “pro.” At one point Robby was sailing around with Kai on his shoulders and also took out Kai’s rig and sailed on it a bit. Look for these photos some day in a Naish ad.
Winds were similar to yesterday, mostly 5.0 but pretty punchy at Kanaha. Wind was a little steadier upwind near Camp One. Very crowded again, so the place to be to get better wind and avoid the crowds was to head up to Camp One.
Wind is supposed to pick up a notch for the weekend, then drop back down to current levels early next week.
