Thought you guys might want to see some footage from the HD gopro.
Apologies for not doing any jumps or sick wakestyle tricks, it is a cabrinha I was riding so I was really worried about it going into a tree. Also felt VERY overpowered for my skill level. No excuse really...



Note: youtube minces the quality quite a bit, the real thing is about 50% clearer than this.

I was so overpowered, that it proves "high depower" that they said when we bought our kites actually means nothing. My kite felt like an 2003 Fuel. Great day though.

Embarrassing kiting with a cabrina on the water though....

Looks like I'm the only one who liked the video, it shows the potential.
Got to get me one of those.

Good to see you were stoked on the Cabrinha, despite recent trash talk about Cabs and trees
Did you use a Helmet Hero to mount the camera?

yeah just one of the curved 3m high-bond stickers that came with it and then the camera housing has a fitting that clicks into it. Seems solid, although I haven't belted my head into a sandbar yet.

The old cross pig bow still works sweet as, I wouldn't call it 'light bar pressure' or 'fast turning' though.
