Cool strapless riding, but Controversial

[Antigrav]

looks legit to me, but i dont want to wear shoes while kiting. Having sand get in there between my toes... Im sure those shoes stink after one season

You ever heard of a washing machine? It's this amazing invention which can clean your clothes....and yes even shoes to stop them smelling
Even just airing your shoes out properly after a session is enough to stop them smelling

For all the non believers & naysayers why don't you man up and offer a 12 pack or more if proven wrong!

It is easy to sit in the comforts of your home and post crap about something being fake. These guys went out shot and edited an awesome video, and you then question if it is legit or not?

What about the notion of legit until proven otherwise!

If you call someone out without cause, you should have to something to lose (Case of Beer) because you already lost your integrity.

damn. there are def some new or at least improved moves in this vid compared to what i've seen on my beach or on other vids.

im going with the strapless tailriding being legit until proven otherwise. im thinking they'll be putting out another vid to prove their point..

thanks for sharing.

Dudes got his right foot wedged on the go pro mount.

Left is so clearly above the water line. Even us physics duds can see its not possible as it is presented, but that there is something his right foot has purchase on. Has to have a pretty decent grip on it too, but looks like his foot is locked into it as it doesn't budge.

Shit gotta go watch that again.

Yeah man, there is something solid mounted to that board. I mean there is go pro footage from the board mount earlier on, and you dont see it at the other end of the board, so its gotta be on there. Used some metal bracket to mount it that doubles as a nice little hook/bar hold. You can see his right foot is pressured on the instep and lifted on the lateral edge. That shoe is held solid throughout the shot and if it were not and he were balancing on his instep, there would be some apparent movement.

Cool as f***, but you cant bullshit this many bullshiters!

I was there its all legit !!!! ill try and get some camera angles soon but its legit !!

Grow some balls. Who cares if some internet bozos think it is legit or not (whatever the fook that means anyway)

I agree, those folks should put up some extra video so we can see for sure...the physics of it look off - but many on wakeskate forums claim that they press wakeskates all the time behind boats, so why not with a kite?

Guys can press a skate up to slide on its end, but its not like whats in that vid. The riders foot has to be pretty near the end of the skate and below the waterline. That dude in the vid pulls one off like a guy in boots where his lower foot is above the waterline and he is really up sliding on the tip of the board.

How it can be done at 1:32

Could it be a case of "Screws in the Shoes"?

Maybe he has a trained pit bull clamping on the board.

A FREE Cabrinha Skate has already been offered you clunge...

I'm not surprised most people on here don't even understand what the original poster is talking about, let alone understand why people are saying it's fake.

legit or not, this is a really sick video of strapless riding, i love the big air backrolls with the surf board, this trick always look good.
