Here is the video. I havent watched it yet

OK. I just watched the video and all I have to say is WOW!! I wish he would have waited until the meds wore off and he is in a better state of mind. He will cringe when he replays this in 3 months.

I hope he doesn't become the Jeff Spicoli of kitesurfing. It's starting to look that way after that interview.

well, at least he was able to say he made a bad call and should have come in sooner...

and was able to mention that he could have released the kite...

and the weather guy did get to mention PREDICTABLE vs. UNPREDICTABLE winds...

Wow, how sad... that interview almost did more harm to the sport then the actual incident.
