Mood: low winds here I come
wonder what that guys skill level is????? I know that in some of the push kiting videos, you see those guys kinda doing the same thing. The difference
being that there is a guy pulling on each leg and they run upwind and let go. But we know they have the skill set for crazy stuff like that.

I would have to agree though, it looked like he lucked out more than it being a matter of skill. Please don't attempt this at home. Animals have
been harmed in the making of this.
