O.O. Denny is one of our favorite parks in Kirkland. We frequently see kiteboarders (or kitesurfers) in this part of Lake Washington. One evening we saw the set up and "launch" for the first time. It was fascinating to watch. The man on the far left was the kiteboarder. There were an amazing number of lines that needed to be just right.
Oops - let's try this again
kiteboarder is almost out of the water
It must take an amazing amount of strength and agility to manage the kite and stay on the board. This man did somersaults, lifting himself and his body high out of the water.
Off he goes!
