@treyfl1p – This was filmed nearly 10 years ago and since then, the sport
of kitesurfing has grown exponentially. The wind gusts in Hawaii are unlike
anywhere else in the world. Trade winds that come in off the ocean can be
much faster than 40knots, as was very clearly shown in this video. Also, we
never produced a show about kitesurfing. This was one segment in a show
about adventures in Hawaii. Perhaps it is you, trey, that should check your
facts.
Check out ‘Ruben Lenten stormsjees 3’ and also ‘Len10’s 3rd attempt at the
pier’ it’s about a guy who’s insane and kite’s on (..or just a little over)
the limits (of stupidity).

“the bigger the kite, the higher you fly” ?? Not really, I can get higher
with a 5m2 kite with 40knots then some1 with a 21m2 flysurfer in lot less
winds.. Check your facts before making a show about kitesurfing >.<
I want to practice kiteboarding I live in cabo mexico, I haven´t seen
anyone doing this it´s so excited to imagin how it can feel to be in water
flowing with the air it´s one of the greatest things I would like to learn
in this life!!! does anyone know how much it can be for a good start??
man. I just now got back from my first kitesurfing lesson, after about 5
seconds with the kite (hadn’t even got on a board yet!) i caught a gust and
went up. Only 25 feet, but i was pretty terrified all the same…
This is the big banana
23msq is not bigger than most paragliders…its smaller than most
paragliders in fact… ;)

Wonder if he went to a smaller kite after that scare?
…dum ass coment, it´s actually the less wind you have, the bigger the
kite you use!!!! You can fly with a small 5 or 7 meter kite!!!!

I’d say the bigger the wind the more power. You just have to pick the right
size kite for the wind!

I think i would pass out of the shock and adrenaline. that shit gotta be
scary
Hmmm, I think i will stick to Windsurfing 😀 Sure, a highspeed catapult
ain’t nice but it sure dont take you 50 meters in the sky…
