They are just coming out of the wood work. Had a friend inform someone down here traded a outboard motor for a kite complete set up. The proud new owner of the kite set up decided to get it a whirl.

That was friday
wind was 30-36
i was on 6 meter
he bought a 12 meter

no worries, since he wasnt sure of the power, he decided to play it safe. HE TIED A ROPE TO HIMSELF AND I THINK TO A DOCK SO HE WOULD NOT GET BLOWN AWAY.

I guess we know how this ends, not sure of full end result but wasnt pretty....

remember carolina rick? I think this guy got lucky, but man, another one for idiot of the day.
