Not much surf up here at present, but plenty of wind. These blokes are like puppet surfers, they're actually quite amazing to watch, and half crazy. No, make that full crazy.

Stopped at the lookout and caught the sun going down on another perfect Coffs Coast day.

Some great action shots - number 8 is a stunner. What is it that is pulling them along?

Wind and lots of it. (There are lots of Pollies on the north coast...

Hi Ozimax

These don't seem to to as sharp as your previous surfing shots. I assume that's because the kitesurfer was further away and you might have cropped in a little to fill the frame?

Still great action shots and I'm always impressed with what you capture with that Tamron. My Sigma 70-300 still fails to impress but I keep working on it!

Actually Jonas you're pretty right there, I was a fair way off, plus I haven't quite worked out how to capture these blokes yet, they move so far and so quickly.

Also, the posted shots are very small approx 18-30kb, down from 6MB, and so a huge amount of detail is lost in the pursuit of quick downloading times etc.
