LF East Coast Demo Tour

A couple weeks back some of the Liquid Force crew (Jason Slezak, Brian Smith, Colleen Carroll, Stan Radev and myself) took off on a short demo tour up the East Coast from Cape Hatteras.  First stop was Ocean City, Maryland where we scored a fun ocean side session and night out on the town!  This place definitely has some great flat water potential but we had to get moving onto NYC early so this will have to stay on my list of spots to hit up another time.

We then hopped on a fairy across the Delaware River into New Jersey and started the drive up to Brooklyn.  I've never been to NYC before so it was quite the experience driving through the burrows and checking some tourist spots out.  We had an amazing dinner at one of Jason's friends restaurants in Manhattan and a bunch of drinks, then headed out on the town!

The next day the crew rallied early and made our way to the NYC Kiteboard Centre in Long Island who has recently taken on LF as a main brand at their shop and school!  The crew there was very welcoming and things were looking good in the morning as far as conditions coming through.  So we took a boat out and checked out some of the famous NYC slicks and picked a few spots that we would hopefully ride later in the day... But no luck, the wind backed off and so the party started a little earlier than expected and multiple no wind activities ensued.

After a long day and night at the NYC Kiteboard Centre we were back on the road and it was looking like we'd be able to grab a sesssion back in Ocean City.  So we b-lined it for 6 hours back and showed up to Ocean City blasting 30 knot winds!  Everyone was stoked and ready to get on the water but as we rolled up to the parking lot it started to downpour and continued to for a few hours until we had to call it and head back to Cape Hatteras.

So not a lot of sessions but we definitely got to talk shop with bunch of kiters and I managed to see 5 states I've never been to before!  So all in all it was a really good time with the crew and now I have a few more spots on the radar to go shred!  Will definitely look forward to another East Coast road trip!
