what I understood the buggy and himself got lifted into the air and then droped head first.
If you take a close look at the buggys in the film you will see that the kite is attached to the buggy. Unless you are freestyling, Big time NO NO!!!
I do understand why they did this (same direction all day long puts huge stress on your hip) but they saw the result of what can happen.
