Fish...E Posted November 3, 2004 Report Posted November 3, 2004 Came home from a good days scudding and walked over the new carpet at home, the wife hit the roof! Does she count........? Quote
Tone Posted November 3, 2004 Report Posted November 3, 2004 6.6 in 30mph?!" are you sure?! forward velocity is not a problem when u r on deck just place it forward and after landind cut wind again:D last weekend made few very good jumps with my blade 6.6 and winds about 30mph. The tactic was to gain max speed (on аsphalt ) and than turn kite up and land already on the grass. Dunno about high but length was about 15 meters great fellings of floating Quote
Blatnoy Posted November 4, 2004 Report Posted November 4, 2004 6.6 in 30mph?!" are you sure?! 100% just trying to not put it away from top too much ps it was very steady wind Quote

tom_waddingham Posted November 25, 2004 Report Posted November 25, 2004 jumped about 17/18 ft on a 9m GKcurl was really windy Quote
samski Posted November 27, 2004 Report Posted November 27, 2004 highest probs bout 10ft minimum to be safe, on a board, video footage if u wanna see. has been other time when i have been very high (hurt ankle) but dont have evidence apart from peoples word of mouth, will have to ask some one how high it was that was also on board (except landing ) Quote
Sand-Yeti Posted November 28, 2004 Report Posted November 28, 2004 Just looked at the thread on 'Scariest video ever'. That must be the highest jump ever, if you can call it a jump; more like a flight really. I have been 15 feet in the air but this guy is like 150 feet. Suicide case if ever there was one. What did I see on TV? "Do Not try this at home". Sand-Yeti Quote
The_Mad_Hatter Posted December 2, 2004 Report Posted December 2, 2004 twenty feet, once and now all i want to do is go that high again. Quote
scud49841599968587 Posted December 3, 2004 Report Posted December 3, 2004 about 12 ft.ONCE. bad landing,foot ended up in a hole,badly sprained,never again. I meant to jump but didnt expect the kite to double jump it pulled,,then pulled some more.UP up up, kinda funny but me foot hurt like hell for months Quote
mart79 Posted December 6, 2004 Report Posted December 6, 2004 I jumped a pathetic 5ft in the air and a not so pathetic 15ft forward. I say jump, but I actually mean I was pulled 5ft in the air and 15ft forward. It was my first time power kiting with my first kite. Quote
hankster Posted December 27, 2004 Report Posted December 27, 2004 about 5ft but it felt a lot lot higher like 20ft Quote

.TheBeest. Posted January 3, 2005 Report Posted January 3, 2005 6ft - FireBee 3.0 - double jump thingy, big gusty winds 8ft - Blade III 4.9 - nice steady wind, swing jump I use handles for serious jumping, I tend to use my bar with harness and I dont fancey landing on the spreader bar, that could seriously mash you up. seen a video with some guy caught in an updraft, and he was seriously high, like 100-200ft, that would be soo coll while scaring the **** out of you at the same time Quote
