    ER...this is what happens to most people when they start off with kitesurfing...get used to crashes, wipeouts and twisted lines and slamming the kite on the water....lot of snobbery in this sport, but suppose this is what its like in most things when you are starting out....

    • @jimmydevron5480
      @jimmydevron5480 Před 3 lety +3

      @Photoshop Guy these are some of these crashes are the same type of crash that are very dangerous and can put you in hospital if it takes 10 leason for you to get to the point where you don't kite loop drag hourself sown the beach anymore then those people should just get 10 leasons. Otherwise they are risking themselves and everyone else

    • @jimmydevron5480
      @jimmydevron5480 Před 3 lety +2

      @Photoshop Guy people are welcome to practice by themselves once they have reached a point where they can do so safely thats my philosophy.

    • @jimmydevron5480
      @jimmydevron5480 Před 3 lety +1

      @Photoshop Guy yeah thays why i'm saying it should be a video about "why you should get lessons" other wise its creating not necessary risk for everyone else. If you teach people these crashes are ok they will go out and hammer them selves to they get it right or severally injury someone else when they could just get leasons and avoid half of these crashes anyway.

    We have to bodydrag sometimes as well, because our starting point is a bit covered and the wind at the beach is aweful.

    The guy at 2:27 & 4:08 is a phenomenal kiter from the NW coast. If you continued the filming him for another 5 sec. I bet he had that Mako on his feet, looped his kite & gone shooting off. If that's the worst you say about Ocean Rodeo... there you have it. BEST should try and sponsor him, but I don't think he would.

    A lot of this is just simple mistakes. Not older equipment. Any kite that is under inflated will not perform correctly even a brand new Best kite. Simple pump gauge will fix that. I’ve been kiteboarding since 2006. We were flying “C” kites with no issues.

      Ray B.; Just like the early day of hang gliding there was NO ONE to really learn from, just whoever showed up and was willing to share their experience with you, to my memories everyone I ever met were very Cool people and happy to help.
      A lot of people would build their own glider from a set of plans in a magazine from 1" conduit or bamboo, or 2" x 2" Douglas Fir for the leading edge and keel, while relying on mylar or plastic (drop cloths) used by painters, which would tear during flight - so we would repair it with a couple of layers of trusty duct tape - and a prayer to the 'gods' to not let them crash and burn too badly,

      Warren Hardy these guys probably all learned in warm holiday regions with its gentle steady breeze and distinct lack of waves, tides, gusts, shorebreak and shit weather. They probably never ever had to pull their safty or sit at the beach and drive home as the conditions were too difficult. I don't think any of them have got a good judgement about when things could go wrong.... Tbh most kites in this video look horribly overpowered.
      Also why the fuck do virtually all of them try to steer the kite/pull the bar in when things go wrong, why dont they just let go of the bar and regrap it once the kite left the powerzone? this makes 0 sense.

      Adrian Smythe; Those items will always add up to having your skin sanded off your butt, face, or body, let alone being thrashed by the rocks.
      Good thing about all this is at least the 'sails' and inflatable wings do not have any 'hard' parts like hang gliders.
      In the early days of hang gliding a lot of people went to the beaches to learn how to fly a hang glider, and when they got off course would either land on top of a group of people on the beach or slam into the sand just short of someone and then flip over on top of them, hitting them with the leading edge of the 'kite' or the keel, which could end up leaving a nasty bruise or a fractured bone - so at least with the modern 'sails' there is far less chance of damage to beach people.
