Have these guys never had a line break when they're riding on water? That snow doesn't look particularly soft.
if that Cabs on 25m lines, then I'm guessing he's well over 50m up
that's 'do a little poo' territory
yeah that's pretty crazy, but he's probably on a hill so the perspective might be a bit out?
That Len10 video off the mountain. He's recorded it off his helmet. Any links to that clip as well please? That would have given me a hard one doing it myself! As Darth Vader once said - "... most impressive"... hhhoooahhhhh
Don't go out further than you can swim, and, don't go up further than you can drop? Fark. Hope he's got good gear.
Got a buddy that does some of this crazy sh it. He uses 800kg breaking strain line and a reserve shoot.
Mind you that guy looks like he doesn't have a reserve on.
I snowkite a bit in the winter here. Know a bunch of norwegian guys that do this, using the up-draught from the mountain face and get mega high and hang there for ages. From what I know its all on standard lines and bars, crazy bastards.
repost from a few years ago, but seeing as you guys started it...
If you are interested in getting into snow kiting over the aussie winter, PM me... awesome fun.
