I'm with ya...and the dude last night is alive today because of his airbag...
So how can we incorporate more weather awareness into kiting culture? Quick releases do very little imo...just like parachutes do little in aircraft...
Our sport is defined in part by the conditions...
It gets good when it gets bad...
16m kites in 12 knots is ok...(but really sucks)...everyone likes to be lit on small kites, when it's the most dangerous....so what do we do with that?
and again, who is to blame? everyone out the last few days or just the guys who got hurt?
