P4 19 Light wind session

Was impressed that I was riding at all, let alone popping wee jumps...

lol your front rolls look the same as mine.... :D

How light was it? looks like you had plenty of power.

Your "wee jumps" look like 30 footers to me! Good float from the kite. It did look like a decent wind though.

My front rolls are usually better than that :o it WAS 18 months ago, after all :D

Weather station reported 8-12 knots, but it was more like 10 to 15. Big Flysurfer though, always lots of power so long as it can fly. The other rider was on a 17m Turbine and directional and he was only going upwind as well as I was - which was just enough to play and not have to walk :)

oh cool. maybe by the time 18 months have gone by I will actually be able to land one! at the moment it feels like it will never happen. Then again thats true of a lot of things in kiting.

nice KK, those are prolly my fav type sessions. with conditions like that everything gets a loop, water not too rough and will try anything.

perfect for unhooked practice! run a little smaller kite and can fun indeed ...thanks for posting i know the vid edit stuff can totally forgotten and blown off.
