Day 26:

Kite: Dyno 18
Lines: 25m

Tricks to do: 38

Good conditions again, well powered on the 18. I need power for the remaining tricks, so very happy about it. Few tricks landed, including a new one, I just thought of yesterday: Barefoot Slide Back 720 ;-)

And finally...this is the last page of tricks to do...we had 6 pages like this when we started to film in Brazil...will be interesting how many of those I can land, since many are just ideas and never have been landed before by anyone...but I can imagine to land it, since I have all technical parts of them. And sorry...you cannot read those tricks...secret! :naughty:
