Beautiful sunset session

These pictures are shot by Jonathan as I enoyed the last minutes of sun in Silversand, Hanko this sunday evening. Ok, I admit, the last photo is photoshopped a little bit too much, but still. The sky was really beautiful, turning into orange and pink as the sun was setting into the ocean! The wind […]

In the end of the trip I have also learned raley to blind and F16 and a variety of kiteloops. I really liked the big kiteloops in […]

The perfect session at Storsand

The perfect session at Storsand

The best kitesurf you can get in Finland is probably pretty close to what I had wednesday evening in Storsand. Storsand works on north winds, why the wind usally is really strong there. I like strong winds with loops and waves too, but lightwind wakestyle is my favorite by far. And on wednesday we had […]
