Theres one main thing that makes the difference between going big and not.... commitment.
You have to 150% commit to the trick. If you dont, you get hurt. I personally didnt trust the wind today.

So i took it easy (well... easyish ) and walked away to fly another day.

 

i got caught out a few times with that wind but was enjoying every minute of it til the bloody line snapped and ruined my fun

 

good to hear about your PB col. nice one i really have got some catching up to do now!! lol

 

C'mon boys, less talk more action.

When we all getting back out?

Tiny?
Dazza?
Fozzie?
Spally?
Col?
Ross?
Mick?
Halesy?

 

i should be able to get out this weekend.

 

Cool,
There was me begining to wonder if this was just a "fad" for some people?

 

lol oh no matey, with moving etc weekends just seemed to fly by without me having any spare time, hopefully will be back out most weekends again now.

 

Ha ha, cool stuff

I just hope the winds are cleaner this coming weekend...

Last sunday was horrid and the kite wanted to murder me at any given oppotunity!

 

we had a quick fly on the beach at the weekend and the wind is so much cleaner on a beach!!!

yeah sounds like conditions were a tad tricky for you boys.

Trust me boys.... i was bricking it!! lol

 

fair bit of air there fella.

 

yeah, i bet the old heart paced a few beats quicker!!!! but nice though.

 

Wasnt my heart Spally, was my sphincter twitchin lol

 

How was the landing?

 

pmsl!!!!

 

Well i had to redirect the kite twice and the landing wasnt too bad, certainly no harder than anything ive normally done. But what did happen was i caught my relese of my strop when i landed to i was effectively holding the power of the kite on just my arms.
The lift was so great that it took my about 60 sec or so to try and grab the brakes to bring it down. I simply wasnt strong enough to pull the brakes in and hold the power at the same time lol.

I should have gone for a kiteloop whilst i was up there but im gonna be honest.. i pussayed out lol

 

waaaaaaaaaa ya pusssaayyyy!!!! lol

 

Lol, yeah i know....

(hangs head in shame)

 

lol you know i'm only kidding matey, think i would have lost all bodily functions being that high off the ground!!!! lol

 

Lol, you kinda get used to it.

Does make the ol ticker get a bit funky though
