My son Henry and I met up with Herb (treblehook) at East Beach to check out the hard pack for the upcoming DBBB. I finally got 2 gopro so got dual
views now. Got a total of 32GB of video to process. Here's the first look at our beach.
btw .. my first chance to actually learn to fly my Coopers.

great little co-pilot.pyro22487 - 10-11-2011 at 12:19 PM

I agree. LOL. "I LIKE DOING THIS" and "GO FASTER." Two of the best phrases I've heard on a kite video. Sounds like he is ready for his own buggy and
kite. Also what kite were you using van. Looked fast but all i could see was red and white.pyro22487 - 10-11-2011 at 12:23 PM
That video looks great with 2 camers! You had a good idea there. Now how do I get one of thoes Henry's for my co-pilot? Looks like you had a great
time! Wish i were there......
BTW great way to baby sit! Love it :wee:van - 10-11-2011 at 02:11 PM
pyro,
that was my Cooper 4.5m . I was way under power especially with the extra weight of the seat and henry on my rear axle. Wind was only about 6-8mph
in the morning so was nice and safe for henry to tag along. The wind finally picked up to about 17 - 20 later in the afternoon so it was a much
better run. I will post that video up tonight. I plan to do a 3D shoot to see how it works.
chad .. that's why I got that second gopro from you. Always wanted to do the picture in picture view.
the beach has a few poles here and there that you have to go through but on the long runs , the pole groupings are about 1 mile apart. They are only
densed near the DBBB campground. The sand in that area is kinda wet right now. You will see what I mean in my second video.airin - 10-11-2011 at 02:57 PM
Great video, Van. Really cool with the two camera angles and, of
course, your son steals the show! van - 10-11-2011 at 09:46 PM
Here's the second video. Taken a few hours later when the wind picked up a little. Finally got into the high teens , lower 20's by late afternoon.
Had to dodge the local wildlife too .. on a leash ...

Oh I'm so jealous. All that beach and 1 dog. LOL. He at least looked friendly.Cat - 11-11-2011 at 10:11 PM
