I thought that i was the only person who grunted while jumping because of the force of the harness. when i watched the jump video i started laughing when i heard you grunt when you landed. im almost embarassed of myself as i grunt every time i jump big. kinda sounds like i'm trying to force out a big beefy turd

when im out flying i dont really notice it as ive usually got my tunes on, but i laughed myself when i hear it on vids. lol. i think it might have something to do with me taking a huge breath when im loading up and holding my breath whilst in the air. note to self, turn mic down on camera!!!!

nice carl! ,,and you beat to the "speed control" basics vid.

this is an important concept guys. BALANCE OF POWER and you gotta know where the brakes are! you will be out of control without understanding this.

great job C

Dude!
Super cool videos! I'm so stoked to try land boarding! All of your videos are inspiring. BTW, these videos are perfect for someone starting in the water too.

+1 :thumbup: for the videos.

Love the multi-angle scenes, really self-explanatory.

I've been learning through the "Progress Beginner Landboarding DVD" but these don't come second to it.

Thank you and keep them coming, ;)

Those are great Mr. Grunty McGruntsalot.

Seriously tho, good stuff man. We have wind today and the fields might be dry enough to get out. I put my bindings back on and I'm gonna give it a shot now that I'm all psyched up from watching your vids.

I'm probably not going to grunt much tho. Well maybe just for effect. Unghh....Unghhhh....UNGHHHHHHH!....ungh?:smilegrin:
