That looks like some mad conditions Bra, What kite size and wind was there?
It was easy & comfortable - 5m kite in 25kts ish.
More demanding conditions we had on 29th October - official measured gusts up to 55kts and waves upto 5-6m at Kolobrzeg pier:
we were riding 150m above the pier:
I was on 5m kite and strongest gusts were above 40kts. The wind was not weaker than 25kts.
Did not approach to the pier too close due to onshore conditions. One mistake and I would end up badly.
3m inflatable would be a better choice
Do not posses it.
BTW.
The highest measured wave (4 km offshore buoy) at Hel peninsula was 13 m that day. I believe it's the Southern Baltic record ever.
