Last week a guy-friend and i went kiting together so I decided I wanted to look sexy and wore only very short boardshorts, a waist harness and a bikini top.   I live in a beach town where the water is really warm. But anyway, I got totally wiped out and my bikini twisted to the side. I didn&#8217;t realize this until I got back up onto the board and felt the difference, but right then we were facing each other as my friend stopped close to where I wiped out to see if he could help&#8230;   Obviously I fixed up matters as quickly as I could (whilst still keeping the kite in air,  I wanted to escape this horribly embarrasing situation in the fastest way possible&#8230;) riding away from my friend&#8217;s wiiiide grin.   Do you ever kite in a bikini, I&#8217;m sure for photoshoots you have to do that? Is there a secret or perhaps even some special kite-bikinis, just like there are sport bras for athletes?     <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[774],"tags":[608,609],"class_list":["post-2135","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-general","tag-bikini","tag-photoshoots"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kitegabi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2135","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kitegabi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kitegabi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.kitegabi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.kitegabi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2135"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/www.kitegabi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2135\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2137,"href":"http:\/\/www.kitegabi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2135\/revisions\/2137"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kitegabi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2135"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.kitegabi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2135"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.kitegabi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2135"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
