Thanks for posting the clip, yes a ton of kiters. It is interesting that the winners rode foil boards.

yes, foils seem to be a next big thing in kiting...

Looks like snowkiting was born by a little accident :)

I think you are right. It is no picnic being dragged over snow and ice by a canopy before you can ditch it or cut out. That is an old looking parachute too, any idea what the year was?

An interesting video from the Crimea shot at night with some creative editing thrown in.

Things go bump in the night and every once in a while things go south regardless of lighting, so have a care out there.

Some photos from a short session last night after work. With sunset at 5:30 pm, there really isn't any other kind in daylight anyway.
