Can you please set up two cameras next time....one for the crash in slow mo....the second one to capture the look on your face as you get dragged
by....you still rock Carl...glad you're OK 
This should be shown for all the posts that ask about jumping before they even own a kite....They would get to see you doing flips and rockin out and
then every now and again this is what could happen...then maybe they wouldn't be asking about purchasing a blade 6.0 and then asking "how do I get
air".
It's never the fall that hurts.....it's what stops you

everything was going fine until I was about to touch down. boosted from the ramp, got some nice air, through in a grab and looked down at the other
camera at the bottom of the ramp, redirected, then a gust hit me and powered me back up and pulled me sideways and off balance, the as the title says
splatttt!!! its very rare that I crash whilst out of control of the kite but this happened so fast and the wind gods showed me who was really in
charge!!
