Yeahhh, me too! Did my first tack yesterday. And just to prove it wasn't a fluke, I did another one 5 minutes later that was much better.
I'm doing the "Duck Tack" refered to in the Caution Kites' how to vid. It took roughly 50 attempts to get the first one. The first dozen attempts were .... hopeless. I remember watching the video thinking- that doesn't look too dificult, a little tricky, but manageable. Then, after the first few attempts thinking it was completely confusing and impossible. Flying off the board! How the? What the ?? So it's pretty gratifying to get the first one down!
Crazy sessions yesterday: SW15kts, 2-3meter waves. Then the wind came around W, then NW13kts. We all drove to another beach 20 minutes away and got in a great flat water session. All under the sun. Only in Nova Scotia, Canada can you have it all in one day! Extacy, Frustration, Elation.
