john_crossland Posted November 4, 2013 Report Posted November 4, 2013 Hi Marc, This is my favourite time lapse sequence.. Taken at a semi secret south Wales spot (i'll leave you figure out where) in a 40knot+ Westerly. The wind was a little too strong for the 6m pumped rock hard. The kite had an unexpected mis-shape on take off which then led to a quite dangerous and comical outcome. Watching from the beach it all happened in the blink of an eye and was quite dramatic. Rider: Ali Bates. - Winds - Insane. Date: November 2011 http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j109/john_thefruitman/IMG_3414.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j109/john_thefruitman/IMG_3415.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j109/john_thefruitman/IMG_3416.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j109/john_thefruitman/IMG_3417.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j109/john_thefruitman/IMG_3418.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j109/john_thefruitman/IMG_3419.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j109/john_thefruitman/IMG_3420.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j109/john_thefruitman/IMG_3421.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j109/john_thefruitman/IMG_3423.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j109/john_thefruitman/IMG_3424.jpg Quote

john_crossland Posted November 4, 2013 Report Posted November 4, 2013 Did he survive? He did and He was very lucky! That spot has mainly shallow water with a couple of deeper channels. He came down bang in the middle of a deep channel and resurfaced with a stupidly big smile on his face. Quote
