Was reminded yesterday what I hated most about body dragging. Almost back to my board when something solid brushed passed my leg. Forgot how quickly you can body drag when you have insentive. Kept telling myself it was a harmless jellyfish, it was just a harmless jellyfish.

Saw my first shark yesterday, it was the length of my board + a bit, not very big, lucky we were on a bit of an adventure and no where near where we normally kite. We have a large flatwater/shallow spot and we followed the tide out to where the shallow water stops and it drops right off. It kind of pumped me up a bit, I love getting those reminders that your not the only thing cruising around out there!

Was it rough and scratchy?

Sorry, I forgot to shave.
