Jim Buttrick, of Seattle, is lifted above the waves on his hydrofoil kiteboard as he and friends ride 24-33 mph winds off Magnuson Park on Monday. He described it as, “just like a perfect powder day while skiing, dropping in, turn after turn.” Buttrick’s favorite places to kiteboard are Lake Washington off Magnuson Park, the western side of Whidbey Island and Maui, Hawaii.
