JIBE splashes only video incoming...

I am almost done watching all three hours of footage I got from JIBE on Wednesday(only day I ran my camera because nowhere to charge it at the campsite). I am pulling out nothing but splashes for the video. Some are huge, and some are not, but there will be no long beach runs in this video, only tide pool and rivulet splashes

Riff I wish I did, but camera battery was dead when I was pulling them Saturday. I will have to get a few on film soon.

I captured some on video this winter with the ice buggy and they don't look as interesting on video from the pilot's perspective. You end up looking at the kite, seeing the first downturn and then looking at the kite as background passes by and unless you are familiar with the background you don't realize it's going around in a circle - have a look at the one I posted from the winter in this thread - and it's using the same kite I lent Errol to pull off his!

Yeah they don't look like much from the pilot's point of view. You just see a downturn and you hold the kite nice and low while you drag it behind you. The spectators get the better view.

Sorry it is taking so long to get this video done guys. Between getting out on my new skates and my family vacation recently, I haven't had much time to work on the video. All I need is one good free night and I should be able to finish up with the splash video. As a bonus I will also try to throw together the north rocky beach run.
