Kitesurfing Maui

Robby Naish kitesurfing the waves on Maui's North and South Shores.

[@LaDeSoul]

Dear Robby, you made me stoked when I was 10 years old and saw you for the first time. I convinced my parents to start windsurfing in our next holiday, starting on a windglider board with a wooden boom 💪 Over the next years I progressed, with analysing every photo in your book Robby Naish Superstar.... Now 37 years later 😎 you still deliver !!! Thank you for your imense spirit. Stay healthy & keep on ripping the waves 🤙 Greets from Germany (next Beach in > 200 miles 🙃)

[@peterlippe8545]

I totally agree! I grew up with Robbys VHS video tape R.I.P. (25 years old but still one of the greatest...) and I still have a (holy) poster on my wall with his personal dedication from the German fair boot. Could be 1993 :-)

[@juleslondon]

This is so mesmerising to watch. Be one with the waves and the wind..

[@Kah0ona]

He's an absolute boss, isn't he. Epic footage.

[@peterlippe8545]

So cool. And so unfair, watching this from Germany 😥

[@Prof.SchulzeSternberg]

2 degrees, cold, cloudy, foggy... I feel you

[@adbouwens1111]

Peter you’re right. Also from a cold Holland in unfair. 👍

[@jeanro3395]

One hand turn and good music. 💪🤙🙏🏼🫶🏽

[@fabiobruno343]

Naish is legend ....Water Man , great natural talent and great contribution tô the kitesurf 👏👏

[@adbouwens1111]

4.49 relaxed wiping water of your face. Rob is top!!

[@vincenzodipisa3237]

If HE uses footstraps I can use footstraps too!

[@devonmike]

Exactly what I was thinking having just turned 67 and need to be one with the board.

[@Kah0ona]

Exactly. So when you are older you realize it's not what other people might think you should enjoy, it's about what YOU think you enjoy :-) That's FREEDOM

[@joeblow1942]

Except for light wind when they want to do skateboard like tricks with the board, all kitesurfers use foot straps.

[@leomoustakas9311]

you are the best robby

[@svennorthwest6233]

Aloha Robby, so glad to see you kiting in the waves. Your style is always inspiring and apparently I got still a couple decades left to practice :-D Take care and keep sharing the Hawaii to console us during Corona winter.

[@MicBergsma]

Awesome, watching from Kihei 🤙🏼

[@galensk]

Epic footage... one can’t come much closer to being united with the basic elements of nature I think....

[@robinriches7798]

Love the Robbie. The master.

[@billfromelma]

The ultimate combination: kite and surf. Wow

[@michelbartholomeeusen3833]

Forever young! How do you keep in such good shape?

[@gboates]

[@Kah0ona]

Nice kite, just received mine and love it.

[@MicBergsma]

Wow! I didn’t know people kite at LAPS!

[@PhilipCrossVideo]

He's not just kiting - he's kiting his ASS off! :-)

[@paulosilva-dm1qb]

I´s good to watch a living legend doing what we all like....(My case windsurfing)

[@baton689]

Robby is very nice to see.

[@user-xi5ls4lu3w]

Theo best legent

[@adamglowatzki60]

One Hand in the Wave ...w👀w👏

[@JGrogann]

this is an argument for foot straps!

[@piaaart1999]

Maradonna of surfsports

[@tenemax7849]

Is it Robby or his son riding here??

[@pwittchen]

🤙

[@garethgreen2851]

So what are the deciding factors for when you decide to kite surf versus windsurf? in this situation was the wind to liight to wind surf? I look at this kite surfing video and it looks so much easier on the body than windsurfing, but I figure it must switch over at some point for that windsurfing is more comfortable. Thoughts anyone?

[@Kah0ona]

I think Robby just enjoys the variety, it's quite a different sport imho, but he's ripping and that's what counts :-)

[@enricocignoni270]

the professor gives us the lesson!

[@stefanos5153]

The Maradona of water sport

[@pierreclot5609]

il est fort le robby

[@klrrafman]

Why backside at Northshore?

[@AlohamanIan]

I find it strange that Robby rides backside on a surf board when he rides frontside on a windsurfer. The two boards are identical except in size... puzzling to me!

[@devonmike]

Please, can someone tell me what board Robbie is using. I need to get a new wave board. Thanks in anticipation.

[@Kah0ona]

same here, also, does it include the skills required to ride like that when you buy one? :-D

[@brettdixon78]

Looks like a global but not 100% sure. I Would like to know also?

[@chucky882]

when I'm reincarnated this is the life I want 😁
