Nice little kiteboard video
http://jimbodouglass.blogspot.com/ I don't know why but I can't get the message board to post a link or even part of one.
Anyway, an interesting strut-perspective gopro video, really gives a perspective on how high the kite is! The blogger mostly windsurfs, but kites when its light .

flying high with the warm west winds
sweet, CJ!
I had to do a couple of handstands to watch it, but thanks for sharing the stoke. Thermal season's getting closer indeed!
Pasta's kitecam video from Gordon's Beach with the reggae music (from a couple of yrs ago) really was part of the reason I wanted to try this awesome sport.

Life is all about balance, and a dose of healthy wind addiction

THanks for all those, never seen any of them before! Funny that Miami clip, they are in wetsuits but its probably 25 degrees still. THats just south of the Rickenbacker Causeway I think, near where I windsurfed. Interesting that those course racing boards you have to get in the straps after you are planing fast, like a windsurfer.

Nice Nitinat video CJ. I like the way the shore looks from the sky up there, and lots of jumps and kite turns.
JL those thruster fins are huge and it looks like they are sailing in calm water!
The Gordon's kitecam vid looks dated now ... especially with Big Wave Dave in there on the Superfreak.
I like the footage from Mexico I shot 2 years ago much better. Turqoise water and I used the zoom about 1/3 in :
