Another stupid kite trick

Scudley - 10-5-2012 at 09:35 PM

With GP's drying out coming very late, Vancouver kiters have been desperate for some kiting action. The video shows Dirtslide and I passing a kite and a couple of gopros.
DS calls his yellow 3m John Lemon, hence the name of the video.

Not much conversation involved, other than "Ready?". We talking about something else entirely. Since his accident DS and I have gotten pretty good passing kites back and forth.
Thanks for the compliments on our flying.

I watched this and thought , this isn't anything tricky ? This is day to day action between you 2 ! Still I really like how you have worked out the double perspective thing !
