Imagine that, someone stupid enough to think they could fly and then getting out and trying it. No lessons, no helmets, no safety gear. They did not hit even a single landing. Morons.

I just kept watching the guy in the second one, (soaring and kitesurfing over sand dune )aircatcher wrote: ...
Now, this is skilled!!! ( unlike the guy who tried to slam his body to the pier at Tramanda's beach with a inflatable kite)

ok so he intends to jump. jumps too close to riders down wind (dangerous), is still kiting in storm conditions over powered (dangerous), and doesn't have his chicken loop hooked in properly (dangerous). Still a bad representation of a well controlled big jump.[/quote]vannibombonato wrote:.
