The lazy desert winds

Our week in Dakhla was really cool. Running away from the first signs of the coming Winter season, we were all happy to be under the sun all day long. I never got to use my shorty when kiting, just a simple t-shirt to avoid sunburns!
Although we had fun discovering the Moroccan Meca for kitesurf, we must confess that it was somewhat disappointing to have mild to light winds all week long!

The conditions didn't really allow us to try all those new tricks and stunts we had been dreaming about, but nevertheless we had enough magic moments to share, like when the fog invaded the spot in a matter of only a few minutes and we found ourselves riding in the midst!

That was actually the only time our skin had a little rest from the omnipresent sun... Me and Gilles we both had our day of frustration, just what was needed to digest the fact that this time we wouldn't be able to do the crazy stuff we'd been planning. But soon after we decided to enjoy the easy ride that marked the trip, saying that the strong winds and big jumps would be postponed for the next visit!

At the end of one of the days, with the wind dropping completely but under a pretty light, I took a series of photos to edit into a nice panoramic of the spot (click to enlarge). Even at low tide, you can see all the potential...
