You got to love how that arc behaves itself while you crawl out of the wreckage.

Snowspider, excellent point...I would have PLOWED my LEI immediatly after face planting....then proceeded to be dragged couple 50 more feet...

Carl....if you listen really close....you can hear the kite snickering at you....(love the little back twist check after you get up.....yup lower half is still attached, good...) Been there...ooff...glad you're ok!! Keep ROCKING IT!!

You are smart wearing protective gear. The skid mark is the best. Always nice to watch when nobody gets hurt. Pride is there to be kept in check from time to time. Thanks for sharing.

Just when you get sure you are in control, Mother nature gives you a gentle reminder who is really in control.
Great video by the way.

Great vid ,humbling vid. as Big Mike said "You are smart wearing protective gear'
not to stomp on your post,, but here is a vid from our last outing of 2012 (12-29-2012) Galveston,Tx.
filmed by Mark (Nfish ). I did not have my brain bucket on...but will be wearing it from now on. Glad you did not get hurt.

oh...if I had a dime for every time it happened to me, I'd be rich :singing: :singing:

falling out of the buggy was harder then falling from 20ft on the landboard. at least when i crash on the landboard i can get my feet down first to take the impact!

no mate, im on the phantoms atm but my chargers should be here pretty soon.

Nfish - 8-1-2013 at 07:34 AM

That's a pretty cool viewing angle...how/where do you attach the camera on the kite?
