This just gets better! How is it any way sensible to hang an 11 yr old under a kite over an inch of water? Paragliding is done over water for a reason!
Don't get me wrong, been there & kited in some dumb spots myself but watching this just makes me cringe.
Watch 1st vid again, pay attention to....
25sec
35sec ouch!
38sec just made it
44sec just again
48sec not much water there!
50sec crashes & lands on middle of sandbar
hey juggler or are you a jiggler?
Not 1 scratch
No damage to any equipment
The only one to mistakenly touch the bank was murray who is 46.
There is a reason why these kids are so good ! Do you know what it is????
They practice practice practice so they are in control of their equipment. They kite better than 90% of kiters in melbourne. They take calculated risks and the have BALLS to go for it!
Give them a break!!!!!!!! We are trying to create champions not pussys or jigglers.
Oh the Internet gets people fired up doesn't it.
Geez all I was pointing out was that some of those jumps were near misses & that dangling an 11 year old child over sand where if something broke (which is completely out of your control, and does happen) it wouldn't end well.get off your high horse for a second & take it as good advice. Quite allot of have also been kiting for years & also know a thing or two....
Love it.....
Don't worry about the safety first **** who rant on these forums.
Life is all about having fun......(without being at the expense of anybody else).
might try kite looping it once we have the afternoon tides back.
I'd love to set up storm pipe or similar as a slider, something that won't do too much damage to board.
I wish My body could bounce back from failed trick attempts as fast as these young guns,,
I've seen a few stacks that would prob be session ending for me,, but they just try again very next tack....
Keep it up, look forward to following your progress into the future.
Safety first!
Always responsible for my actions!
