Kitesurfing Magazine - Spring 2018

ON THE COVER | MOONA WHYTE

Rider: Moona Whyte Location: Indo Photographer: Jason Wolcott/LiquidEye

Style, grace, power, flow and a great smile are all words I would use to describe the subject of this issue’s cover. I have spent the past few seasons shooting with Moona Whyte and it’s hard to describe the amount of trust there needs to be shooting kitesurfing with a fisheye lens. To get a good shot the rider must be within a few feet of the lens making injury to the rider and the photographer all too real. Add hitting it on your back hand where the rider has a limited view compounds the danger and difficulty. I am happy to report that she did an amazing job and I still have all my limbs attached. I know Moona will be back again soon and I’m ready to do the dance all over again. —Jason Wolcott
