Farck Tow-ups hey?

Ballsy fruit loop test pilot - great effort Jesse Richman and Naish, quit while you're ahead!

Insane madness, it's going to end a different way for someone else. Taking kiting to a whole new level of danger. It would have been good to hear what the plan B backup plan was? Parachute?

Branson will make something of this no doubt, take the V to the sky in a new way?? Take that naked model on his back up into the mile high club and parachute down..... got to go watch it again!

Any paragliders out there would surely laugh at this

paraglider here. this is hilariously **** and all the hype its getting makes me cringe so hard. nothing but disgust over this.

im trying to get into parakiting as in paraglider alpine harness large foil kite or speedwing board reserves etc

**** like this just pushes that back that much further.

if jesse "if i wasnt a kiter i would be a pilot" richman actualy had his pilots licence he should have lost it that day. flying an unrated wing in public the tow operater should of lost his tow endorsement and icence etc the whole thing is pretty disgusting.

but bottom line is its amazeingly **** its in no way awe inspireing imprevious technical nothing its **** embaressing and pathetic.

anyways what can you do. i would love to see how 790ft is the record BTW as people have kited off the peaks of much higher mountains and glided down. ON KITES with no reserves or varios etc. not to mention under there own power.

Tsk tsk what a c0ck, Nuff said

... there is a backup plan hes got a reserve chute infront of him.

the funny thing is reserve chutes are literally useless below a certain height. i would have to scan threw the hgfa ops manual to double check but i know theres no point in me having a reserve chute when im flying around rainbow beach ridge soaring because by time i get it thrown etc itll be to late. actually deploying it is more dangerous then not and i fly at around 4000ft there.

some how i think they forgot to mention that to little jesse hahahaha. or that if his harness had an airbag and it inflated he would of had a 99% chance of drowning as the inflated airbag on the seat and back of his harness floats forceing him face down into the water with his weight on the buckles of the harness makeing them nearly impossible to open.

im assumeing his friend who does the towing knows this and maybe disabled the airbag but still..... some idiots watch this probably wont.

if he goes back up there and does a few infinity tumbles ill take my hat off and eat it. untill then its just a tin of generic savings stupids smotherd in lame sauce

this is whats happening to your sport.



and i cant bloody wait. i have been working towards this for years now just getting trained up as best i can untill manufacturers such as ozone gin etc that make both glider wings and kites do enough research to develop a safe enough system to be able to sell to the public so that i can ridge sore and kitesurf in the same session.

oh ****! did i mispell something on the internet **** **** ****

Lets keep kiteboarding and parasailing separate.....PLEASE!!!!!....Someone is going to get killed

Because no one dies parasailing.... Or kiteboarding...

....


are you saying parasailing just to anger me?

because it is working. i have so much rage now. so much rage.

parasailing is the fat american woman being dragged along the shore and into the breakers before she is hoisted a few hundred feet in the air by a boat and cable and a big ass balloon kite chute madooby

paragliding is ..... you ARE just trying to make me angry. you know damn well what the difference is.

hate to tell you this but people have been "kiteing" paraglider wings and draging themselves over the sand dunes years before "kitesurfing" started. the only way to keep them seperate would be to eradicate kitesurfing from existance.

there is nothing personal about a series of the ol on offs matey. even the lightbulbs had a bit of a warming feeling but now adays its just data. an endless stream of mind numbing data

keep an eye out for Jesse in the Darwin Awards..!
