The Tora sessions

A little while back I posted a blog about a road trip to the Wairarapa called Tora Tora Tora. Willy Davenport from Wind & Kite made the journey too, and shot the whole session.

I am so stoked Willy has come onto the scene down here. It is so good having someone dedicated to documenting these sessions. Often everyone is just too busy sailing to take lots of shots. If you are lucky, someone will come in early and snap a few, but usually when everyone is completely tapped.

The photos on the right are a sequence of, what I think is, a nice lip smack! Not a big aerial but a nice grunty angle.

Thanks Willy!

Where's Tora? Never scored that place while there... Bummed - nice waves, starboard tack... Yummy.

Aahhh, it's a secret spot, very local. Not allowed to take Canadians there.

Oh alright... wouldn't want to put your whiney asses to shame anyway, complaining about the balmy 5-6C and all... ;)

The secret to winter warmth is in the back hair.
