How are my buggyin skillz?

Hey guys,

I have a video of my kite buggying a few days ago and I was wondering if you guys would mind taking a quick look at it and giving me any feedback on how I can improve kite control/buggying.

This is probably the 3rd time out in the buggy.

The winds were about 12 mph and I was using my Apex 2 - 5m.

The track going away from the camera was slightly upwind whereas the track going towards the camera was slightly downwind.

I maxed out at 21.4 mph according to my gps.

Thanks!!

Should go on grass and control dynamic turn with drifting... more fun!

Looks awesome for what we can see. I wanted to see what you were doing with the kite on the far turns but the camera operator would zoom in to clip the kite out. I could see that the trees behind you were giving you a wind shadow. That's not anything you are doing wrong.

To add some fun, turn the kite down in your turns to add some power on the finish of your turn when wind conditions permit.
