You know...those friends of yours that make fun of you flying your "Fancy Boy Kites" and trying to tell you it's not a sport!

What video do you send them to show all the variables in flying?

I have a couple of my college friends that need a good lesson and to be put in their place!:mad:

Try this one... It covers about all of the variables both land and water.

I'm going to have to agree with John on this one.

People always ask me "how high can you jump with that parachute" and I typically respond with this series of record-breaking kitesurfing jumps by Eddy Lansink:

(But here's the kicker: I don't jump.)
And I would prefer that we show people videos that would get them interested in kiteboarding--not brutal accidents that could scare them off. :(

I like zero gee's. Can't believe the kite surfer ran into the other kite surfer. Lucky he wasn't cut in half.
