Watched the whole thing, but to be honest 2 minutes is enough. There is a ferry at 6:30. I guess the bridge has a horn as i was expecting a big muther ****ing boat to appear.
hahah... americans are always fkn noisy... i know hes excited .. good on him.. but he does squeel like bitch... awesome spot though be good fun
I can't believe how crowded it is under that bridge. Why is everyone on surfboards?
Thanks for the heads-up, I'll mute it if I play it. Not sure I'll even play it.
Crawled out of my tent at Sterkfontein Dam in South Africa one morning to thick fog and visibility about 50 metres. Went to get the camp stove going and looked up to see one of blokes kiting in from out of nowhere. I wasn't quick enough to get on the water before it cleared up, but it must have been pretty disorienting when you got far enough out not to see the shore anywhere...
That joints busy as
how you guys go when its busy like that?? or does it just become instinct to dodge all the other blokes and not get run over? 
Yes, yes we heard you Whoooo
Not going to be too long before some show off crashes a kite into the ferry, then, no more kitesurfing in the fog under the Golden Gate Bridge.
What would be good if someone could get their kite caught up on the underside of the bridge!!
That sure would be worth a Woooooooooooooooo Hoooooooooo!!!!!
Ive got an old VHS tape of kite boarding LOL
And they have footage of the golden gate kiters and a windy arse day
I think Chuck someone big solid bloke kick arse rider lost his kite right under the bridge and the coast guard picked it up and brought it back 
Ahhh have to find a vid player and have a geeser haha
Air sickness of the top of my head. or its the other one I have.
The bridge looks romantic but it's nothing compared with the conditions we're used to here in Australia.
I'm an experienced kiter and have lived there for a couple of years but I would not kite under the bridge. The water is absolutely freezing cold (people expire after 60 minutes immersion even wearing a thick wetsuit). The Farrallon Islands just offshore is a white pointer breeding ground where they live for the seals who breed at Stenson Beach about 8 km north of the Golden Gate. The tide going in and out can run at 7 knotts so if your kite goes down you will be towed out to sea. [My friend was recued by the coast guard after being towed couple of miles out. Luckily he had a radio to call the coast guard]. The wind is always cold (summer breeze is typically 11 degrees C). It is spectacularly beautiful but a seriously hard core. Australia by comparison is paradise.
There's only two other places you can kite in the San Francisco bay area which runs 50 km north-south. One is near the San Mateo bridge where there's a tiny beach about 200m long, walled by rocks and the water is mirky. This is where the Google founders kite. The other is near Oakland in the east bay where the water is shallow, warmer and it is like kiting on a river.

While I wouldn't say the actual country, meaning the land, is over rated, all of America(and that includes Canada and Mexico not just the goodoleusa horray) is stunningly beautiful. Having lived both in the US and Mexico and traveled both extensively, there are some people as well as the gov that give it a bad wrap. There are people there who think the world revolves around the Mericans. Not all are like that and traveling around will show anybody that there are good people, as well as "a" holes to be found
Saying that though, I have been in Oz for 25 years and it IS paradise. We are lucky stars to be living in such a place. Anyone ever complains about their lot here in this country need to get on a plane and see what its like in other countries.
As far as surfing in nor cal or under that bridge, you can have it....I hate cold water. If its too cold for 3/2 and you need booties gloves and hood, i want no part of the ice cream headache.
Merry Christmas everyone.....
