Up and running... sort of

After spraining my knee a couple days ago I decided it was time to get my own website up and running while I was stuck on the couch. So here it is, the first blog post of ericrienstra.com.

I'm on the East Coast of the US now, coaching kiteboarding at Real Watersports on Hatteras Island, North Carolina. Hatteras is one of a few small sand bar islands that form the Outer Banks and separate Pamlico Sound from the Atlantic Ocean. It's a super sick place to ride because you have flat water riding conditions on the Sound side and waves on the Atlantic side. So far every day since I arrived I have either kited, surfed, wakeboarded, or skated. I have a feeling this is going to be an eventful summer.

Here are some vids to check out from the past couple years:
