My friend, Ben, is an enthusiastic kiteboarder whom I’ve been photographing for a little more than five years. In the early days, I thought the images in which the kiteboarders were in the air were the most interesting pictures. But it turns out they like the photographs in which they are kicking up big waves whilst performing cutbacks as much as the aerial acrobatics, maybe more so.

I’ve been trying to capture more of those wave-making moments. Ben was really stirring up the water during my last two trips to Chapoquoit. So here are some of the shots, Ben. I hope you like them!
