Egypt
My first impression of Lagoon beach near Moon Beach in Egypt was amazing, although there was no wind the spot couldn’t have been better and the conditions looked set to be epic.
We got to stay in a nice hotel right on the beach with 2 lagoons just down wind in view, the set up is actually ridiculous.
For the first 2 days there was no wind, it was horrific, perfect flat water was waiting but what made it worst was the fact there is nothing to do here.
Luckily we had brought Guitar Hero, PSP and bought a new mini football at the airport so we had enough to keep us entertained.
On the 3rd day we woke up to 13m weather, that was a relief, another day would have been unbearable. The wind was good and the lagoons were incredible, the wind picked up a bit more in the afternoon until I was lit on my 13, so I came off the water a happy man.
The next day was even better, we woke up to blasting 9m weather and went straight out and had it, the morning session was good but later in the evening once the tides had topped up the lagoons we went out and had a Super Mega Bosch session, it was amazing, the water was at it’s flattest and I was at Power Bosch level on my 9. It started with a front mobe 5 airpass but with a ridiculous amount of distance travelled, it also involved a Bocshmosis, Wrapped Bocshmosis and even a Kiteloop – Boschmosis all of which will be revealed soon. But, the highlight of my session was a Mega Power backside 315 airpass, which is basically a Blind Judge with and extra 360 and involves 2 aerial handle passes. (Also could be explained as a Backside 313 – blind but with and aerial pass before you land)
So that was the session, it was epic, my knees are hurting but it’s a good feeling, when that happens you know you must have been taking some harsh landing.
After the session the there was a sand storm, the wind picked up a even more and at one point the sun looked like it was going to disappear, Lewis though it would be a good idea to go out on a 11m, but I gave it a miss. He said he almost died on a Kiteloop but had some mega hangtime and stupidly powered s-bends-blind, but still I was happy to wait for the today.
Right now the wind looks good again, I think I will go out on my 11.
I’ll let you know how it goes.
Cheers.

Aloha dude,
I’m Redha, instrutor here at Colona Watersports in Hurghada. Are you thinking of comin’ down and rip up the sandbar this year?
I’d loved to see you bosch it over a boat!
Loved the PKRA countdown on kiteworld, watching it all the time before I go out on the water.
Hope you’re having an awesome time on the flats.
