Don't you hate it when bystanders just lose it?!

Thanks George. Now I'm going to have nightmares about being kite mugged by wacked out geriatrics craving a wind fix. So it goes.

There is a lot more action and hilarious stuff not shown here so check out the clip. It is a Classic and only a day old.

Those aren't dunes ( well, maybe a little sand ), mostly they are nasty bushes that scratch alot

It is easy to laugh at the clip, it's hilarious. I wonder what George and Dimitri will do to top this comedic piece.

Sadly enough, some of us have been treated to lofting and dragging by outsiders grabbing control bars. One example appears at:

under "Don't Pull On That!"

and

The talented woman rider shown on the outside was dragged into the undercarriage of a parked van. She suffered serious injury when this happened some years back in Maui when a bystander pulled on her control bar. She seems to have fully recovered and is riding harder than ever, good thing!

So, keep bystanders away from your gear when flying and avoid getting blindsided by geriatric riding hopefuls swinging campaign bags.
