......um?

Page 15/16, iKiteMag.com, issue 4

Okay. He's not moving and the kite's parked at the edge of the window (hence the board is perpendicular to the pull). Right?

Otherwise something's messed up.:puzzled:

Theoretically possible he could be looking back over his shoulder as he moves down the beach? I dont know, looks a bit odd to me too.... lol

Look at the wheel tracks tho. They come from right to left so he would be moving from right to left through the frame but the kite is going left to right.

ahah. yea. his lines are twisted too, so it's very likely he just turned the kite and was slowing down.
