A little fun at the beach

Jaymz - 3-6-2010 at 12:34 AM

Hit the beach yesterday after work. Winds were on the low end and sunny, BUT 30 minutes later good winds rolled in along with heavy fog. It was like flying in a cloud and soon everything was dripping wet. The kite got a bit heavy and sluggish once it was wet, but still good scudding. I may wear out the soles on my boots soon. :wee:

Scudding like you were on skis, nice!

Well the trash cans aren't much of a problem. BUT they just put down "speed bumps" I had to jump over tonight. Thick carpet walkways that go across the beach from the street to the high water line. Guess they're not thinking of Kite Scudding safety here. lol

Wicked nice scuds, Jaymz. Scuds like that, who needs a board or buggy? I like how your scud boots have a spot in your sig. Are they stock or modified? Your legs/knees must be like steel! Too bad about the carpets, though if you can do it safely, footage of you scudding/jumping them would be awesome!

I watched knowing that you know how to scud / skate.

You make static flying look like a sport of it's own after all. Who needs a stinking ride when you have kite skills and a nice soft beach!

:wee:

We had a Rando spotting on the beach last night.

He came up with a great idea. Scud races!
But flying on handles was wearing him out. Maybe a stromp will help.
