Hot, Dry and Light

It was a hot and dry day today on Maui, with light wind, tempting only the die-hard and desperate windsurfers out onto the water. Average wind speeds peaked at about 19 today but mid-teens was more common. The water was spectacularly clear and blue, the surf as flat as I've seen it.

Got some more video today from Maui Windsurfing video correspondent Steve Robinson. The first shows young ripper Kalani Hunt ripping it up for a photo shoot last week.

In our second video today, one Maui Windsurfing video correspondent captures another on video as Steve gets some footage of Norm Roediger practicing his flat water backloops at Kanaha.

  • What's the music on the flat water back loop attempts? Only 2 more weeks left for the 'loop before 50' date.

  • Not sure what the music is. Hey Steve, if you're reading this, care to jump in and comment on what that music is?

    Yep, I'm definitely feeling the pressure to get looping. Everyone's doing it! It's all the rage! It's so easy! We need to organize a "Maui Old Farts Loop Support Group"
