If you teach people these crashes are ok they will go out and hammer them selves to they get it right or severally injury someone else when they could just get leasons and avoid half of these crashes anyway.

      Ray B.; Just like the early day of hang gliding there was NO ONE to really learn from, just whoever showed up and was willing to share their experience with you, to my memories everyone I ever met were very Cool people and happy to help.
      A lot of people would build their own glider from a set of plans in a magazine from 1" conduit or bamboo, or 2" x 2" Douglas Fir for the leading edge and keel, while relying on mylar or plastic (drop cloths) used by painters, which would tear during flight - so we would repair it with a couple of layers of trusty duct tape - and a prayer to the 'gods' to not let them crash and burn too badly,

      @larrywhalen596 2 роки тому

      Adrian Smythe; Those items will always add up to having your skin sanded off your butt, face, or body, let alone being thrashed by the rocks.
      Good thing about all this is at least the 'sails' and inflatable wings do not have any 'hard' parts like hang gliders.
      In the early days of hang gliding a lot of people went to the beaches to learn how to fly a hang glider, and when they got off course would either land on top of a group of people on the beach or slam into the sand just short of someone and then flip over on top of them, hitting them with the leading edge of the 'kite' or the keel, which could end up leaving a nasty bruise or a fractured bone - so at least with the modern 'sails' there is far less chance of damage to beach people.

    @gatesurfer 4 роки тому +1

    There are exactly three windsurfers shown in this video, not a single one of them being in any danger in the slightest, just gear caught in shorebreak. On the other hand, there are dozens of kiters getting wracked up, endangering themselves and others, wrecking their gear and looking like idiots.
    As a windsurfer, I'm offended by my sport getting lumped in with kitesurfing. Here in Hawaii, kiters are always getting their gear stuck in people's trees, and then they complain about "those kiters and windsurfers." It's not the same. Windsurfing is not nearly as dangerous. It takes far more skill, and as a result you develop a much greater knowledge and respect for the wind and the water, IMHO. I sail at one of the trickier spots on Oahu, and I'm friends with most of the kiters there and respect the skills they've developed o handle the conditions. But even then, one of the more skilled riders got his kite caught up in a tree recently. And there was a kiter who got taken to the hospital in an ambulance just a few days ago after crashing at one of the "safer" spots on the island recently.
    New gear may be "safer" than old gear, but I'd prefer a sport that is "safe," period. A dangerous situation should be a rare, rare, rare occasion, with injury even more rare. Most kiters I know have several horror stories to tell about their kiting experiences, and I've witnessed plenty myself without even doing the sport.

      Warren Hardy these guys probably all learned in warm holiday regions with its gentle steady breeze and distinct lack of waves, tides, gusts, shorebreak and shit weather. They probably never ever had to pull their safty or sit at the beach and drive home as the conditions were too difficult. I don't think any of them have got a good judgement about when things could go wrong.... Tbh most kites in this video look horribly overpowered.
      Also why the fuck do virtually all of them try to steer the kite/pull the bar in when things go wrong, why dont they just let go of the bar and regrap it once the kite left the powerzone? this makes 0 sense.
