hecky yeah!!!!!!!!! that's what i'm talking about carl. You beat me to it, that is what I was going to do. I love this video. I love your super technical videos, but that is definatly my style of riding. I love big airs, and I love jumping over people and other stuff. Riding across the hood of your car is like bringing skateboarding influence to kite landboarding. I freakin love this video. I was going to try this at one of the events this year to try and show off to everybody, but you definatly stole the thunder. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Nice job with the filming of that one, Carl.

Looked like a new deck. No longer riding MBS these days?

Adam, there is still some thunder there for ya'. That is a european vehicle . Jump a CHEVY van Bro':wee:,that would be a little bit harder.
Not knocking my hero Carl, but he is taller than the van!;-)

Sick. What's your plan if you don't get enough air to clear the van? My guess would be to put the board up perpendicular to the van and absorb as much impact as possible with the legs, then maybe a PFL roll? Definitely would put a dent in the van, but better that than any injuries.

donnie i'll still give it a shot. the 15 charger has tons of lift and I know that i can pull it off in the right conditions

Fantastic new action in your videos! I enjoyed the use of the lights as well. Are you enjoying the new video equipment and board?

Nice! I want to come visit sometime. That looks like an awesome place to fly.

Way back in 1999 a friend was coming in from kitesurfing and he got lofted through the parking lot. He hit the front fender of my van feet first and then slide up and over the windshield and over the back. The fender was totally 100% smashed in. Luckily he didn't hit the windshield first. Pissed me off 'cause he didn't want to pay for it and the deductible on my insurance was to high to make it worth while to repair.
