Ronald McDonald flies LEI's ... ... Who knew?

So I was recently on a day trip with the family, when (as any other American would expect) we made the typical and ritualistic stop at McDonalds for lunch... As always, the kids excitedly request CHOCOLATE MILK!!!!!!!!! which inevitably ends up an empty container for daddy to dispose of, ... when what do mine eyes percieve,... is Ronald McDonald Kite surfing?!?!?!?!?!?!?!


Holy Cow,... it looks like the famous clown with the red nose and hair and yellow body suit (which must second as a wet suit) has taken up Kite surfing to help up his chocolate milk sales,... and it looks like he can fly an LEI without a harness to boot!

here you can see him riding... a door maybe???



and here up top right you see his mad skills with the LEI...



I wonder if the red afro helps his lift when he jumps?

@ BK,... it might be more appropriate to say my kids eat McDonalds... or at least they just act like they eat it then play with the toys that come with their happy meal for about a day :lol: i have to limit my intake lest I feel the overwhelming guilt and hardening arteries.

@ Kami,... It is ACTUALLY a 4 line kite,... you can't tell from my pics, but the kite has 4 lines just the brakes and fly lines are both attached to the same point on each end of his control bar,... so yes, I'd say that's some grip he's got, with no depower,... somebody in marketing needs to do some research eh?

@ Cheezy,... Dude,... language,... but yeah, no helmet, but I thought most kite surfers didn't wear helmets? or am I wrong on that one?... Besides,... the big red afro seems as though it might be effective head protection, right....
