Last night I had the best Skudding session ever since I started! Wind was a "deep" 20+/- constant and I used my trusty Bullet.
Went about 75 yards [not feet!] at mach 10- I mean speed where you feel your feet only hit the tops of the footprints in the sand.
Whole deal lasted maybe 10 seconds.
Cars can park right at the sands edge so it is like an "audience" I screamed by and people were blowing their horns and cheering me- couple of "Harley
Guys" were really cheering me on.
When I stopped there was a cloud of dust in the air- Never have gone that fast - ran out of beach or I would have continued to I fell off the earth. I
was in total control and wanted more speed! Glad to get that "thrill" back.beachrights - 4-8-2012 at 05:40 AM

Scudding is wicked cool untill you try it the way TheKidd used to do it, On his FACE!!! But he's gotten much better at it. Come on down to WBB in
Oct. and scudd the whole beach!!B-Roc - 4-8-2012 at 09:51 AM

There's nothing quite like scudding and jumping around after a long hot day in the buggy.
It just wouldn't be a proper session without it.Todd - 4-8-2012 at 04:52 PM
Awesome! Next time be sure to strap on the Contour... bunch of video junkies around here ya know.Bladerunner - 4-8-2012 at 07:18 PM
You are a snowkiter who hasn't found out yet ! :bigok:soliver - 5-8-2012 at 01:12 PM
I love that!
I had a great scudding session on Saint Simons Island, GA with my 5m Core in 10mph winds. I kept the kite at about 3 o'clock in the window then down
looped and crossed the power zone scudding about 15-25 feet each go. All the while in a pair of super cheap walmart flip flops... it was awesome.
75 yards like 225 ft.... that's sweeeeeeet!!!Jaymz - 5-8-2012 at 05:27 PM
Who doesn't love to scud....on sand.
Had a nice static jump/ scud session with the 14m Gin in 8mph two summers ago. The Scud Boots were squeeling and heating up after a few blocks.

Jaymz- nice video! You "stole" some of the angles I was going to use for my upcoming video but hey, now I see they work nicely! Cool music too! That
was a nice skud and very lengthy!beachrights - 5-8-2012 at 05:48 PM

Nice! My son and I had a blast in the breeze on Friday, but nothing like that. The wind was sweet on Saturday and I'm jealous.B-Roc - 8-8-2012 at 09:04 AM

For anyone that saw it , my spring WBB scud was a memorable one. 10m Pansh blaze launched in 5mph ground wind found 15mph winds about 1/3 of the way
up to 60meters(3 sets of lines together). All I could do is keep it straight untill it got up top, did a few bunny hops and brought it all back down.
Quite a ride!
