Lets get all boasty and lay down how high we have jumped.

How high? what was the speed and what type and size kite were you flying.

Even better if you can back it up with evidence.

We might as well set a measurement units. I'm calling the unit to be in lamp posts.

Im calling 1 x lampost height for me. attained on three different kites on different occasions

11 edge 25-30, 10 c4 30ish knots, 8m catalyst 35+

ps this is intended height. not jumps that you have been lofted on.
pss you must have landed the jump or it doesn't count.

Sadly i have no evidence only my eyethometer which could be wildly off. All i can say is you can tell when the jump is monster when you look down and things start to look very small bellow you.

6m nemi, a few years ago on a flat day at graveyards, not sure if it was the 'big one' captured but felt high. winds probally about 30-35knots.



and because i love jumping windsurfers!

i once jumped my pole boarder mate.




and then pissed off with his board.
It actually rode pretty good.

You know you've gone high when you think "oh s**t now I have to get down from here in one piece!"

The hight ; my kite lines length plus a little more kite was then looped and sent back up . Orrr reading post again i didnt land it i landed on the sand with my right foot and broke heel into 14 pieces dose that count as landed .
Photo of it : dose an xray count .
Wind :a lot come out of my mouth with a strage sound on the second pull .
All good now this happen 2 years ago and just geting back into boosting now i can get about 1/2 a lamp pole in and yes i am still scared .

ouch! if you rode it out like it was on the water then yes it counts!....

yo, if you were asking me i the helmet cam was on my 7m torch on 20m lines. it was super gusty like 15-35 knots, wasnt much good but if you caught a gust right you could get up there. the other one at carrum was averaging like 35 at fawkner so gusts were upto like 45 it was the most overpowered ive ever been, that was the only pic i got that day as there was too much sea spray and the lens got covered too quick i got a few quite a bit higher but no proof so i guess it never happened on seabreeze!!

Nice height off flat water. Damn I need someone to take a picture of me jumping. righto might get onto it. Today would be a good day right.......
