Kite Ski baby !
That is how it all got started !power - 25-12-2009 at 07:47 AM
When you see people kitesurfing, they only use boards, never skis. Flotation? On snow people use both and same on land (landboards + rollerblades).Bladerunner - 25-12-2009 at 08:08 AM
Corey and his KiteSki started this whole thing in north america. He started on skis but moved to a board. I think float and edging are an issue ? I'm
only sorry people didn't push for better skis .Kamikuza - 25-12-2009 at 08:22 AM
Yeah looked they got blown downwind a lot ... pretty cool vid though william_rx7 - 25-12-2009 at 09:43 PM
OK, way to kook out, but really, somebody get that guy a surf board, quickly.
The sport's pioneers did push the design of water skis, the results: buy a kite / surf board. Just ask Flash Austin and Corey Roessler.Bladerunner - 26-12-2009 at 08:24 AM

I know Corey blew them all away on skis at the Gorge but I never heard of ( My Hero ) Flash using them? I thought he started out on a Flexifoil and a
skim board in Florida?william_rx7 - 28-12-2009 at 10:19 AM
Bladerunner, you know what, you're right. I thought I remembered it from the "UPWIND" video, but, nothing about skis.

Kinda what I was thinking...I love the fact that people get inventive and want to try new things but some of the things I see...I just ask myself
Why???
Sad to say, but some things I think will just flop and this is one of them...one year in R&D for that....Wow
