Probably this clown.



Not sure why Lou even wore a harness, maybe just for back support for hard landings.

This video is a lie too. It was made in 2016 with a 5 line freestyle specific kite and someone edited the other lines out and added the "retro filter"

Don't believe what you are seeing. You need to immediately go to your local kite shop talk about the kite technology you need and order a "freestyle or wave specific kite" nothing else! Take it to the next level.

Torch "Designed for hardcore freestyle riders" Are you hardcore enough?

Vegas "The ultimate freestyle weapon" Can you ride a weapon?

Fuel "Surf tough seems" This is very confusing :-0 help....

Fixed.

Robby is a legend, one of my inspirations as a grom (watched his vids about 1000 times). Amazing windsurfer, average kiter.

Yeah Rowdy - he is the king of windsurfing, probably not the best kiter, but depends on what you consider cool. Old school tweaked out big airs etc may not be everyones cup of tea, but I never get sick of that stuff. To each there own. What you up to these days anyway? Last time I saw you was many moons ago at Cam Barkers parents place at Tannum, the good old days, Cheers Hargs.

They stole my pick up line and made it into a advertisement....unfortunately the answer for me was always no, so maybe not the best for marketing.

Cool vid. Back when kiting really was a cool niche "extreme sport"

Lou didn't have a chicken loop, just a harness line without a quick release. Chicken loops on 4 line kites were for "chickens"

Wow, that's a long time ago!

Robby is a shredder for sure, I love that part in the Naish vid where he's laying down his sail and getting these little barrels . He can kite, just not at a pro level I guess, doesn't mean he can't entertain.

I'm basically a Euro half the time now (makes sense right), travelling around doing what I can to stay healthy and have fun. Is anyone kiting up there anymore? It was such a good scene, it's a shame that most of the guys aren't really into it anymore, those Coconet comps were crazy! haha.

Hahaha, yeah I've run into him a few times in random places, good to see him doing well! I remember those Deltas and 2-lines, although by the time I started I didn't have to bother with them much. How about those Peter Lynn Arcs?

I bet Lou Waiman's kids ride skateboards not scooters.

The way it should be.
