Pe’ahi (Jaws) Barrel – Jesse Richman<br />
PE’AHI (JAWS) BARREL<br />
• Jesse Richman•<br />
This was the fourth time I tried to pull into a Jaws barrel<br />
on my Pivot kite and the first time that I—or for that matter<br />
any kiteboarder—has successfully made it out of one.<br />
It was an incredible view. I believe that big barrels are<br />
probably the best, and most addictive, experience I’ve<br />
ever had. Being engulfed with so much energy around you<br />
is wild. To me they are so special because with big barrels<br />
comes big consequences. One mistake and it’s a really<br />
gnarly experience, which is what usually happens to<br />
me. It’s still fun but actually making it out of one feels like<br />
touching a dragons tong and escaping his jaws before he’s<br />
calmed down. Simply awesome.
