So after thanksgiving weekend I finally have a few kitejumping photos courtesy of invertedforce and joeblinky. They are also editing a little video
that will most likely be up in a few days. So here are a couple of pics from the video of me jumping

I tried posting pictures on the ATB board and they wouldn't post for some odd reason.flyjump - 3-12-2009 at 08:14 AM
10.5 bomba in 17mph wind, and 13m V2 in 14 mph wind. Our video is a mixture of kites using scorpion 13 and 16, venom 2 13, venom16, bomba 10.5, and

Jealous... I have yet to land one of those yet... I'm hoping to get foot outs mastered next time I'm out :D Next weekend.
I only recently have started to push the tricks hard :wee:
hope to see those pix!!!flyjump - 4-12-2009 at 12:31 PM
the wind here is so in and out, it's hard to get good consistent days to learn or practise tricks. And when i'm actually doing well and learning, i
don't have anybody to take pictures or film. Very frustrating.f0rgiv3n - 4-12-2009 at 12:42 PM

lol... looks like we're on the same boat. Where are you seated at? flyjump - 4-12-2009 at 01:00 PM
I'm in springfield MO. I think you and I must be at the same ability level, I feel like we've been learning at the same pace.f0rgiv3n - 4-12-2009 at 01:17 PM
Indeed. Glad to have someone who experiences the same disappointment with the wind :D . Oh well, you do what you can with what you have eH? I've seen
it as: if we can make do with crappy conditions we'll be a lot better because we can handle those days when the wind isn't so great. :Ange09:flyjump - 4-12-2009 at 01:26 PM
It also causes you to learn quick as to take advantage of those good daysJack1988 - 4-12-2009 at 09:10 PM
Great Photos and jumping, i wanna jump like that nin inland winds on Fb but im too scred or should i say wary, i need and ARCflyjump - 4-12-2009 at 11:17 PM
We used to jump like that with 5m aces, you should just get a depower. It's so easy to jump and way more fun when riding on a boardInvertedForce - 5-12-2009 at 08:19 AM
Vid is up, but I'm reluctant to post because there is footage of me using an ARC for the first time, and its rather embarrassing. My nuts are hanging
around for all to see, because of my tubular webbing harness that puts stress on inconvenient locations...
Maybe I'll recut the video and repost just Flyjumps' and joeblinky's sessions.cheezycheese - 5-12-2009 at 12:28 PM
C'mon dude post... Can't be any more compromising than others I've seenlynx69 - 6-12-2009 at 01:33 PM
Too bad the little "Bridge Troll Cop" didn't see you gettin big air, Flyjump! She would have pulled her gun out and arrested you.Beatkeeper1 - 14-12-2009 at 09:52 AM
Glad I found this site I'm in RI people on racekites were hating a bit so here's my photo. First season in the game training with a beamer because i
didn't know about aspect ratio when i bought it. Beamer 4 5.0 15 mph Brenton Point Newport RI. Also I'm 6'1" 190 lbs so that says something that it
lifted me that high lol. bobalooie57 - 14-12-2009 at 10:50 AM
Hi bk1, welcome to the forum, I grew up in Pawcatuck, CT, right next to Westerly, RI. Since I started buggying this past year, I wondered about those
RI beaches, misquamicut, watch hill, etc. Anyone ever buggy there? I live in upstate NY now, and haven't been back to that coast since acquiring
this addiction..haha Hey... you like jumping? That 8.5M Savage in the for sale section looks to be the shizzy for jumping, and a great deal to boot!
Please buy it before I do...Beatkeeper1 - 14-12-2009 at 12:16 PM
Can't say I've tried those beaches. Usually I stick to Brenton Point Newport on the weekdays otherwise it's crowded because it's such a small field
not good for buggies. Another I go to is Colt State in Bristol, bit of a trek as it is further North. But Most I like Gansett beach after 5 when the
toolish lifeguards go away pretty good to whip out the ATB near the skim so it should be awesome for a buggy.flyjump - 14-12-2009 at 12:30 PM
nice photo, invertedforce is also from rhode island. as a matter of fact he's the guy i'm jumping over in the first pictureBeatkeeper1 - 14-12-2009 at 12:58 PM
Small world hit me up if you're going flying in the area my friend has a slingshot b4 he wants to try for the first time.doublespeed360 - 16-12-2009 at 08:38 AM
bob, i flown at brenton pt. 2nd beach, and colt state pk.,all great places when people ar'nt nearInvertedForce - 7-1-2010 at 07:50 PM
I was looking at aerial maps of the RI coast, and from what I can tell, the best looking place so far is right off Matunuck Beach Rd, just west of the
pavilion and parking lots. There is a pretty large field that looks RIPE for ATB, and being so close to the water, I bet the wind is nice and clean!indigo_wolf - 7-1-2010 at 08:00 PM
omg briliant photos really impressive
I hope i can jump like you soon :DInvertedForce - 11-1-2010 at 04:39 PM
Indigo, yeah see that field to the west of your marker? It's quick access to the parking lot and right off the beach! I am living in Des Moines for
the time being, so I can't check it out, but If you happen to go let me know how it is!
