Here's a sequence of one getting nailed at Teahupoo :shock:

Do you reckon that the kitesurfing fashion for boardies over the top of a wetsuit is going to be a problem in bigger waves?

This pic from the sequence is great

Hows the crowd, that sucks. Mavericks is a joke now days!
Why would you bother.... Id rather surf a 4ft beachbreak.
