no point is scored. Afterwards we went
up a volcano and took some really cool
photos. It was all red and dusty volcanic
rock. A few days later we came back to
the village to do a photo shoot of us kiting
there. We had to wait for the tide to come
in so Etienne and Lazare went kiting in
the small waves outside the lagoon and
behind the village. We walked around
the village to the point so we could watch
them. The beach was made of all this
amazing volcanic white rock, it was really
light. It almost looked like a beach of
popcorn!
We took loads of cool videos and photos
of all of us kiting in the lagoon surrounded
by the village with no one around apart
from chickens! We all rode in a massive
thick line back and forward, the water
was super bumpy! But it looked really
cool until we had a tangle! On the last
day, Friday, we watched Etienne and
Olivier (cameraman) riding in the waves.
As they were massive waves, they were
too big for us. The only way of getting into
the water was launching their kites and
walking across sharp rock
and jumping off the rocks with their
board! Then to come back in they
had to ride upwind into a lagoon to
get back. It was really interesting
watching them on the waves as
they were really good and catching
barrels and it makes a change from
the hard core freestyle!
It was a really amazing week,
hopefully I can go next year. I think
f-one is the coolest brand because of
what they do with kids like me!
