Pictures from my trip to Tarifa Spain, with Rune, Fredrik, Espen and Håkon

Traveling with kite buddys from Norway to Cumbuco Brazil. Pictures from the trip

I kite buddy of mine from Norway, Jørgen, has been sailing around the Caribbean for 16 months. This Easter I took time of from work and visited Jørgen on his sailboat “Morning Star”. With wind not on my side, I had almost no kiting at all during my trip. Sad, since we visited some very nice kitesurfing spots in the Caribbean sea. Anyway, we had fun sailing and motoring our way from St. Martin in the east, all the way to Puerto Rico in the west.

One of the stops on my around the world trip was Antigua. Here I met Adam, a local kiteboarder and admin of www.kitescoop.com. Adam took me and one of his local kiteboarding friends Jake out for a spin one day, and I took lifestyle shoots them. Adam wanted to use the pictures on his new web page, which I was totally cool with. Today he launched his new site today. Congratulations Adam!
