Kite surfing is pretty extreme!

I’m not much of a sports­man, really. OK, I enjoy watch­ing cricket and all, and knock­ing a ball around every so often, but I’m not avid sports­fan. Kite surf­ing is some­thing I must try though! Wow! It looks pretty intense and awe­some. I’ve watched kite surfers quite often and have really enjoyed pho­to­graph­ing them doing jumps and other tricks.

Check out this foot­age of Aaron Hadlow shot at Dolphin Beach recently. The man is a machine in the water! Hadlow, a pro­fes­sional kite surfer based in the UK, returns to the Cape reg­u­larly for our awe­some kit­ing con­di­tions. Who would have thought, a UK-​​based kite surfer. They only get two-​​or-​​so months of sun a year up there! Anyways, check out this foot­age. You’ll see what I mean by “intense”.

This foot­age was shot for an extreme sports movie being filmed at the moment, titled “Unfinished Business”. The above clip was edited by Eddy Wedler. For more on the movie and the extreme sports being doc­u­mented, visit the “Unfinished Business — The Making Of” blog.
