Devonport kiteboarder Nick Reeves (17yrs) lines up against the two AC75's sailing Auckland, and shot the two hookups (on different days) using a body-cam.

The first was against America's Magic in fading light on the inner Waitemata Harbour.

The second was against Emirates Team New Zealand's Te Aihe off Takapuna Beach - all looked very even, until Peter Burling lit the afterburner.
