..... My first flysurfer arrive last week ( thanks Kamikuza ) and it was hard for me to work all week...... long hours with knowledge that FS is in my car waiting for first session ..... lol....
Finally last weekend ..... perfect wind for this monster .... new spot that is my favorite now ........ and companion of my pal Jaymz .......
No problem with setup and lunch ...... 10 min of static fly and another 10 making small jumps ......
...ok...... all good...... lets buggy ......
It is a bit different from all kites that I have and when riding in buggy it scare me few times when I pull bar in ...... wow ..... so big difference in power delivery ..... and that huge wing over my head with unusual for me shape .... blocking the sun and keeping me in its shadow ,,,,,,,........ totally new experience ......
.... later that day wind start blowing a bit more and I really start to feel overpowered on buggy ..... and then I realize that safety system involves leash that I did forgot to connect .....lol.....
After packing FS it was time to try Gin Yeti 13m that I purchase few months ago and never have chance to fly .....
....Somehow behavior of that one was more familiar and all wird feelings gone.....
....... Looks like that 13m is a prototype model with many bridle lines with knots ( probably for perfect tune search ) and older bar ..... however it did not make any problems for me at this session and it will be a good replacement of my Eskimo 14m...


Here is video from that happy session .......

Island Beach Session 9-11-11

[

Yikes dude you put that up and the rode a BUGGY?!?! :o looks like it'll suit you for a low-wind engine though ...! Glad you're enjoying :D

Me, I'd want 20knots to start having fun on the water :D

Dude friggin awesome man !!! Enjoyed as always... Can't wait to ride there with you guys... Maybe Sunday...?

Nice Video!!! Love that beach and music selection. Another happy Flysurfer owner.

Great time on the beach Sunday for sure. Nice job on the video and dig that tune. Now go get Bigfoots, I'm tired of towing you around
Come on down Cheezy. Sunday looks good from here. ENE @ 15-20mph. Low tide 9:43am. Morning session. Or all day with Bigfoots ;-)

P4 15M , nice unit! cool vid

Flysurfer.... :dunno:

You traitor :o

Kober you have come a long way since the days of feeding the trees with your kites. Cool beaners!

P4 you say.... you sir need a board (water or land) get some hang time with that kite!!

Awesome vid tho, that actually looked like a pretty stable kite! Keep 'em coming!

@kamikuza ...........
I love to try it on water .......... and as you see that day wind was not strong enough for kiteboarding ......
.... for first FS experience I think I did good ........

@cheezy .....
...... Subday early morning ..... because I have meeting at 2pm in NY ....

@B-Roc......
1 Flysurfer ....... vs 9 Gin kites ...... I am not qualified to be traitor

@ snowspider ...... so far ~ 10 buggy sessions ..... only one tree ...... hopefully that was first and last tree on my way ,,,,,



THANKS to all for comments .....

Hell yes

"P4 you say.... you sir need a board (water or land) get some hang time with that kite!!"
that's exactly what I was thinking! you've got the kite to do it, and it will give some sweet float too.

Where in jersey have you guys been flying?

Island Beach State Park, Berkeley, NJ near Seaside Heights .....

Today I have Psycho4 first time out on water ......
according to wind alert in 18-28 mph conditions .......
.... strap fully in ..... bar all way out ..... that think is a monster !!!!!! and small pull on a bar make you go sky high ..... ( not that I was trying to jump ..... ) awesome depower range .... I think that was my problem ...... I try to fly it like my other kites ..... with bar continuously traveling up and down in those gusty conditions ...... small movement change a lot in power delivery .....
awesome time with it today .... way too many times overpowered .... after warp speeding I did change it to may 11m Gin zulu II that was perfect for those conditions .......

lookin good kober, can't wait to ride with you at WWBB

My god that looks like fun ....

nice!!!

Awww man, I gotta get me a bugg.....
