When it comes to extreme land jumping, this is hard to top:
Brighton extreme
And here is my favorite, mellow version of jumping (makes me not so envious of hang gliders) Super Kite Day: |

SWEET!! I've been looking for that vid too. I remember seeing it like a year or so ago. I always remembered those gap jumps and was like WOW! Peaked
my interest and made me go get an ATB.

Those guys have some smooth skills. While the moves are extreme and cool to watch on those pushkiting videos, the dad in me is a little tweaked that
they are boosting 30+ feet in the air without helmets on. And then there are those wood posts, cars, and pavement to contend with. How does food
taste when its in a tube?
