Very enjoyable video and particularly enjoyed @1:12. Communication with the public in a friendly manner is crucial to keeping the beaches open to us.

Hahaha thanks guys! Although I appreciate the props I feel compelled to point out that the 360 was in the bloopers section (read: not on purpose)
Kober: Thanks- couldn't have gotten that shot without my awesome wife filming
Todd: I like the way you put that, " Communication with the public in a friendly manner." :bouncing:
Cheezycheese: Cool man- not sure if u know, but I'm a HS math teacher and I've been doing an end of year rap with my students for the last 4 years-
it's always a good time

Nice job, nice spot. Soon you will be seeking to do those 360's on purpose! Math rap! My HS math teachers were too uptight for anything like that!

Thanks bobalooie57! If you want to check out the raps they're all on my youtube channel- just follow the link for the kite vid and click on my
username.
Can't wait until I can do 360's on purpose:wee:
The more I watch it the more I like that backflip off the back of the buggy- that looked pretty cool. I think I might like to perfect that one as
well:tumble:

High Tide might be do-able, depending on the buggy and the winds., but at low tide the sand was incredible- nice smooth hard pack.
You guys should come join me for a session one of these windy fall days. I'm already thinking about organizing a sister event to the Cheezeball...
maybe call it the "Dobbs Invitational," has a nice ring to it :eureka:

Thanks Jaymz and airin!
@Cerebite I'll watch out for those lines around the axle- doesn't sound like fun. Thanks for the math rap props- it really is a lot of fun and the
kids remember it forever. Doing what I can to make math cool for the masses
