Neil finally gets his wings (well a kite)

Neil is sooooooo excited! I'm SOOOOO excited! After about 6 or 7 years of wanting to kite surf, his little dream has finally come true (sort of, he hasn't actually kite surfed yet.) He has a kite and a board though and lots of rope and stuff to keep him attached to both and he's ready to go. He had his first lesson the other day, which to my relief took place on a day with almost non-exsistant wind and thankfully on the relative safety of a beach. His instructor told him he's a natural and that he's never seen anyone control a kite so well on their first try. I'm not sure if it's his natural talent or if it's all the hours and hours of youtube video instruction he's taken over the last week or so. I'm surprised he's not already doing 50 foot jumps with the amount of "study" he's done ;) Anyway, here are some pics of Neil with his new toy and, trust me here, the biggest smile he's possibly ever had......
