Pussy, lenten would have looped it
If he had a foil board strapped to his feet it would have been more legit.

Or any board - not landing on the water feels like a missed opportunity...

the most wtf moment was when the kite started to hindenberg just before launching + rigging it up on a bunch on dirt with stones and stuff

suuuper calm nerves for sure, amazing what is possible with a kite

No he wouldn't have... Marek (guy in the vid) is actually the guy that did Lentens "famous" snow-kiting jump first and actually completed the jump properly, landing further down the mountain and in the right spot. Marek is the king of this stuff and all the other kooks jumping off high cliff and towers etc have almost no idea what they are doing and to quote the man himself "are lucky to not kill themselves".
