Super fun session and my best wave riding experience at IV. With low tide and some swell in the channel, the sand bar was pushing up fairly long and predictable 2-3 foot waves. I was able to catch a bunch of them and it was a good chance to work on my timing and kite handling for getting into a wave and staying in it. The wind was mostly reliable for wave riding. My Mom and brother came to IV to watch and I came in mid-session to chat with them and then went back for a second helping of waves. It would have been a perfect session except that, when I landed my kite to chat with my Mom, a Bulldog in a yellow vest sauntered up to my kite's wing tip and cocked a leg. The nerve!
