Video OBE POV in San Cayetano

Hello Everybody,
I had an OBE last Saturday while bugging in San Cayetano / Buenos Aires / Argentina.

It looks more spectacular in video than in real life.
I didn't got hurt, just my ego :-) :-)

Problem was that I didn't pay enough attention to the kite signals that it was going to deflate (wind was very gusty) since I was trying to figure it out how to get down from the dune.
I think I should have applied the brakes before to avoid the kite deflating.

You remained in control which was good. That looks like a great location. Hard packed dune, my dream surface.
Any more video from San Cayetano ?

Yes San Cayetano is a great place to ride, there are a lot of dunes some hard packed and some other soft. There are some very high too.
I have some more videos from our last trip to San Cayetano (it is 650km from Buenos Aires). I still have to edit them. I'll make another post whe ready.

Ramiro
