Barbados 2008

CKB checks out the kite surfing scene in Barbados's South-East coast.

Dereck Camacho from DCBoardz kindly hooked me up with two of his Kitesurfing buddies
Kyle Harris and Kevin Talma, both using his custom boards, after meeting up in Maui.

Kevin is brother of Brian "Irie Man" Talma owner of the " de Action Shop" watersport school at Silver Rock.,
This is well worth the visit even if you don't go in the water, for the cooling breeze in the upper beach bar.

I shot two video sessions,

Session1
Has an introductory part giving a taste of the South-east part of Barbados (plus Surfing at Bathsheba)
and with some footage of Kyle and Kevin going out late in the afternoon with an approaching squall.
The session was cut short by the squall, which gave some impressive wind and rain!
