Yeah, me too. So finally they find a use for it
. Some nice scenes in the video, getting down for paddling in the wave and getting up again, grapping the camera on the end and so on.
@Barbs:
Yes the video was played in double speed, to keep the production easy and uncut and as I thought nobody would accept looking for 2 minutes just on my tacking training.
Did this before I entered a lee on the lake with very low and difficult wind and where the success rate of my tacks and jibes still has to be improved a lot

Foiling 360s are super fun. What is more fun is to try to link as many as you can in a row.
Here is 4 in a row, unfortunatly I lost momentum or else it would have been 5

I love it when the wind is so light that you can see though the water clearly. It allows for nice shots like this

You're killing it with these videos man, lookin' awesome. What's your camera setup? I have this weird notion in my head that putting a gopro on my foil kites will weight down the center lines and make them collapse, but you seem to disprove that notion. Thoughts?

Hi Mossy,
I use a Go Pro 4 Black with the Camrig Linemount.
The Line mount on the Front lines has never been an issue for me. I have been putting Go Pros on Foilkites with a a Linemount since the Go Pro 2 which weighs a lot more than the GP3 or 4. I have even had the Go Pro attached to the Kite itself using high powered magnets.
