Andy C Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 (edited) Finally remembered to bring my new camera to Ainsdale on Sunday, and despite spending half the time mucking about with the settings I did manage to take some half decent pictures and put a short and not very amazing video together, if anyone is interested...! Video below, and some pictures as well if anyone cares...! Edited July 12, 2010 by Andy C Quote
duc996bp Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 Great Andy!!! Thanks for taking the time. p.s. whos the music by? Quote
Andy C Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Posted July 12, 2010 Music is Numb by Marina and the Diamonds. It might have been more poignant as a song for winter kitesurfing..."I feel numb most of the time..." - pretty much how my hands and feet felt last winter... Hope you like the slow motion of spraying yourself in the face with a load of water....! Quote
duc996bp Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 A video paints a thousand words, I must work on getting rid of that poo stance!! Quote
Andy C Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Posted July 12, 2010 Your stance looks pretty good mostly I thought. If you have a long bar throw on the Rev, which they normally do, that often doesn't help, if you shorten the throw to about 20cm or so the you physically cant throw the bar out which is what tends to affect your stance. Or get a C-kite... Quote
g3legacy Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 I like it, its good to see some normal people out riding Reminds me what wind looks like Quote

Blast Posted July 13, 2010 Report Posted July 13, 2010 Sweet little vid guys, as said above nice to see real regular guys riding rather than pro/danglers. Send some of the pics to Blankforce, they may use them on there website. They have asked for pics of customers on there boards. Quote
NickOfTheNorth Posted July 13, 2010 Report Posted July 13, 2010 dav sav ie. "cool dave" is the coolest kiter on the beach, shorty mid-winter style! Quote
Andy C Posted July 13, 2010 Author Report Posted July 13, 2010 Hey Nick, If you PM me your email address I can send you some decent quality pictures of yourself. The video is too big a file to send in an email although I could write it onto a DVD and bring it down to the beach sometime if you want. Andrew Quote

Chris C. Posted July 13, 2010 Report Posted July 13, 2010 Sunday was first time at Ainsdale. Whats the trick to get though the soft sand? Thank god for the nice ranger with the 4x4. Quote
Andy C Posted July 13, 2010 Author Report Posted July 13, 2010 (edited) My trick is to have 4x4 on my camper van.... Formed quite badly this year for some reason, don't know why they don't clear it, although it does help to keep Joe Public away from our parking spots and launch site!
