Sky is the same, sea looks similar, beaches can be different, BUT THIS IS EXCEPTIONAL...

Was that a 'Nano' demo?
Nanometre, one millionth of a millimeter!

Nice snow pics Aris.

Rossall - That pic of the beached ship is awesome.

I was wondering what Chris Cousins looked like :wink: - I will show my wife that kiting will keep you fit when you get older.

Checked out the prank video - I thought there might have been a pink mankini.

Hey Kawika,

Now I know why they teach you to launch your kite and get off the beach and in the water. I always thought it was for the lofting thing.

That is the best one I have seen in a long time. Funny stuff.
