Kiteboarding in Okinawa

Okinawa plays a fantastic host to water sports of all kinds from of course Scuba diving to Surfing and something I've always been interested in, Kite boarding.

My good friend Mike Davidson of Patriot Kites and the fotoShisa camera crew got together to capture some of the thrill and excitement of the sport the other day.

Here is a few shots and behind the scenes from the day.

All images shot with Canon 5DmkII with Canon 8-15mm f4L fisheye zoom in Ikelite housing or

Canon 5DmkIII with 300mm f2.8L attached from the shore operated by my wife Haruna. 

An awesome fun first time shooting Kiteboarding! It was also a great learning experience for catching fast action while in the water with a heavy camera housing.
