Thanks mate, was a decent swim in but not regretting letting go of the kite one bit, I'm glad I got in okay to was decent size out there.

Lesson to be Learnt:

- Be prepared to let go of your kite out there if you get into strife particularly in offshore winds

- Be a confident in your swimming to be able to get yourself to shore in the conditions you are entering. Gunnamatta is an extremely rough beach and I'm very thankful to my parents for teaching me how to swim in the ocean.

- Call the water police straight after it happens if you lost a kite, they are very thankful.

Declan

far out, stressful. I always wear an impact vest (really its just a floatie) because of situations like this.

Last time I kited Gunnamatta one of the guys with my dropped his kite and had to be rescued by the lifeguards.
