New Video "Radar Love"

So we were trying to figure out if there was enough snow to make it worthwhile for some of the NJ/DC area crew to head up for snow kiting, and snobdoktor diablo was saying how much he was jonesing for some riding We decided to wait and see what the week brings, as far as snow goes. I got to thinking how much I could use a good session, and figured wind, no snow, then BUGGY! I got to Southwick and the wind was from the NNW, right down the beach, but I rode anyway, to the north was a hard slog upwind, and to the south was try and keep your lines tight whichever way possible. Radar Love, one of my favorite jonesing songs of all time, accompanies.

Hey, nice vid! I like the camera positions, and of course, the NPW!

Thanks, yeah, the ol' NPW,s gettin kind of thin, and not so crispy anymore, but has and still sees a lot of use! I got lucky with positions, If you notice when the cam is mounted on the mast, you can see the screw on the j-box is packed with sand. I had the cam mounted on my helmet, and unfortunately it wasn't on, I let the kite slip back a little too far when a gust came up and flipped me right over, if the cam had been there, who knows? Really too bad it wasn't on though, the POV from the helmet would have been hilarious!

Good vid and great song choice. Brought back memories and almost got the munchies listening. That's a live version I had not heard before with a few extra rifts. Sweet. Thanks

Nice! Like the NPW too!

... "the" snobdr? I always thought it was snowboarder :lol:

Had a dream last night I had a buggy. Discovered it in a cupboard, all sorta folded up, mounted on the wall and it wasn't until I started unfolding it that I realised what it actually was :o no more watching "Transformers" and kite vids before bedtime for me ...!

It was snowboarder, I just heard he had a t-shirt made for the last Wildwood, that said 'snobdockto diablo' in honor of our big, happy family! :D:roll:
