The following is the advanced launch used in HAWAII
for boys & girls all ages n skill levels

1. Pump your awesome kite up
2. Lay your pre tensioned lines out & pull depower on if necessary
3. Walk your dumb ass, away from the Car, Carpark or Fence you are standing next to
4. Stand that same dumb ass, out on beach or in water before thumbs up
5. Check beside your dumb ass, that your not launching into your dumb friends ass, about to do the same thing

******These happy cherubs were were all about to ass up when i saw them ****

They werent Noobs either & at two different beaches same day, for the life of me and lack of Bullets whats up with that. Im buyin a camera - to share some special moments of very special people wether they like it or not !

There are two schools of thought on how to launch savethewhales. You saw the one that's obviously stupid to "most" (you, me and the rest of WA).

Seen the same thing many times, saw it this passing weekend at Scarbs, sigh. Interesting point it was by an out of towner and "usually" is. Upon investigation you usually find they are "taught" this by someone. I just hope they live to learn :-/ ( I am thru arguing, dragging dead bodies is easier :-o

When traction is lost you only go downwind!

Hey all

Its Just a reminder that its not just the ignorant NooBs that do stupid things...

Whenever exp Ks do something becuase of FigJam
the lesser experienced usually copies with a bad outcome - need i say more.

Experienced kiters are more stupid, for knowing better and are the ones who will get us Banned from some beaches!

If this is not Worthy of posting - then our kiteing days are numbered, just ask WAKSA..
