Hey Bros here's my first ever attempt at uploading a video to the web.

Its also my first ever editing attempt. So go easy on me!

This is a nice cruizy session on the beach. Wind is about 12knots. I'm flying the 10m manta II. Cruizing along around 40 - 45kph, throwing the occasional jump. The log jump is amusing at 2mins as is riding the rocks at 3 mins. If you check out the stuff i ride past and over your'l see why I use monster tyres.

Nce vid - what camera/mount do you use ?

gopro hd. with a helmet mount sticky back thing on the deck.

The vimeo upload is at about half resolution.

Very cool

Awesome jump as well

we'll have to start a GoPro thread, yup! I have one now

just need some time to get my sorry ass onto the beach

awesome,im always telling you to get a buggy but now i see why you love the board. keep it up

i need abit more wind say 18 knots for some faster speed and some bigger jumps. at 12 knots i'd have to really crank as fast as i could, swing the kite back quite far and jump. it meant i wasn't landing with much foward momentum. But still it put a huge grin on my face. theres something about landkiting that i find extra special over kitesurfing!

Gannet the go pro is a sweet sweet tool and robust as hell. i slammed mine into the rear tire of my mtb at 50kph. the result? a small scratch on the lense. buy a new lense for $20 and its all go.

i created that vid at about half the quality of the actual gopro quality. 235mb for 5 mins!.

16mins per gb!

So yourl need masses of memory at processing power on your pc to store and edit the footage

Awesome vid! ... excellent song choice too! Makes me want to get out in the wind!


... I'm gonna be a bit nosy and ask whats in your backpack? Just been curious as to what people carry around in their kits. Currently trying to make a bag for my buggy.


Look forward to some more vids

when land kiting i always take my 10m manta and 6m access just incase the wind drops or increases and i'm at the other end of the beach. in this instance i'm flying the 10 manta and the 6 access is in the bag. plus theres a few bits an pieces in there like emergency kite repair stuff some bridle bits...
