seems that someone removed the second video - so I guess we'll have to suffer watching the dude getting ejected from his homebrew, meh.

Too bad - the two ends of the skill spectrum, side by side for comparison, was good food for thought.

I wonder if he felt enlightened as his body was being dragged along the ground with the kite flailing toward the power lines? Enlightened or at least
excited - assuming he was still conscious.
What size/type of kite is that? I doesn't look that big. Certainly reinforces the need to approach the sport with caution, respect - and knowledge.
I'm a noob. My 11m Neo instills fear in me. That's a good thing.

The first video looks like he's flying a 4 - 5m radsail. Gusty conditions or his flying skills make for entertaining learning - hope he's ok though -
looked like a dump that could be walked, or limped, away from.

The Gravity Renegades video is on Sy's website, SylenzFilms. That vid has been one of my favorites for quite some time and usually one of the ones I
show to people who ask about kiting or my buggy. He's got a lot of good vids, definitely worth checking out.
