El Gouna, Egypt, 2008
El Gouna, near Hurghada on the coast of the Red Sea in Egypt.

dsc01717 Setting off for a day of fun. dsc01718 Cruising out across the lagoon. dsc01721 Feeble air - should be a new trick name! dsc01723 Coming out of a back roll, and heading for the landing. dsc01730 Bird's eye view showing the inner lagoon, the deep water channel, and a second lagoon further out. The 2nd lagoon is much further than it looks, especially if you've got to swim back in. dsc01731 Nice steady winds, being more cross-on shore. dsc01733 Late afternoon session, which was a little quieter. dsc01736 Nice steady winds in this afternoon session. dsc01739 Camera out, show-off mode engaged. Straight air over the slightly deeper water channel within the lagoon. dsc01741 A little bit of toeside riding. dsc01744 Aerial transition, lots of room to practice in. dsc01749 Mid-afternoon session with lots of people around. A lot more kites in 2008 than in 2007. dsc01752 Again a busy session. dsc01753 Dive boats return in the afternoon and sometimes provide an audience for those that like to show-off. dsc01756 Another straight air. dsc01762 Launching in to a small back-roll. dsc01764 Coming out of a carved turn. dsc01765 Actually getting a little bit of height and float.
