dude, this is kite flying at its best, i have never seen somebody flying tht long and "controlled" b4, an i've seen like 21000 vids on youtube--- dude, you've got my deepest respect.. awesome
I love power kiting still fairly new to it I have a basic 5m kite and I get some reasonable jumps of that. But what I love about this is that is so different from most other videos of power kiting. Its so relaxed and he makes it look easy! And thats the key. Just shows that he is in total control Nice one!
I just had my harness break about 20 ft high one strap held and it flipped me around so I crashed head first luckily in deep water. Please other kiters don't try to copy this guy.
I'm 6 years experienced Powered paragliding instructor and it seems to me very dangerous. I have no clue about the sport that you showing here but if that wing collapsed you will loose lot of altitude and fast. Perhaps you can say about it more here and lead us out of the wrong impression? Perhaps if you like the feeling of flight you want to join the PPG community. Stay safe Dude J.
NICE HANG TIME. I for one would prefer water underneath me, but you defiantly pulled out the right kite for the amount of wind and you body weight. Good job.
i just dont understand how he gets that vertical lift...is it because the wind being directed upward by the cliffs? or is it simply a lot of wind going horizontally at the kite causing it to create lift?
Max respect, but the reason why your flying so long is the effect of the hill pushing the wind upwards (if you look at the wind sock its blowing slightly upwards)
Dangerous . . . Smayngerous . . . professional bull riding is dangerous! Professional boxing is dangerous; high school football is dangerous; Sadly, riding a bus on the interstate highway in California is dangerous. We are all risk takers when we get out of bed every morning. This guy calculated the odds; thought they were OK; and, threw the dice. So what? Taking calculated risks is all part of living life.
if you get your self a paraglider harness and use short lines say 10metres you will have back protection and the short lines attached wide to the left and right carabiners on the harness will keep you from rotating. Of curse the center/front lines wont go through the centre bar hole...you can use a bar or separate handles for the brake/steer lines..need to rig them so you dont lose them if let go...2 eylets out bord on the bar might be an option for the 2 centre lines if you want to use the bar.rig the paraglider harness so you are facing into wind. maybe put a helmet on and maybe dont use old equipment and maybe find sand dunes with some give when you make a mistake and no trees or fences or cars round....good luck:)
@@Kevinbiernacki your welcome:)...speed wings are not as exiting as they dont flip the leading edge from front under to back and take off backwards into the hill:) they have like paragliders a gallery of bridle lines to stop that from happening (boring).an inflatable leading edge might not do this very often especially in smooth wind.a line between the tips of the kite might help in this regard..who knows:)
awesome video, but isnt this dangerous to hit the ground once the wind drops?, i'm a paramotor pilot and i drop like 1 meter per second and mine is a 25m³ wing...
Man, that's awesome..I wish I wasn't so deathly afraid of heights. All I would be thinking about is that kite taking me up way too high! Is that possible, with strong winds? (Like, out of control)
Cool and superskilled ! Got me smiling :) . However, wrong tool for the job. Somebody riding a unicycle on the freeway would be cool, but silly. Why not try paragliding or even hang gliding ?

Crazy kite skills. Super dangerous. Wow.
Beautiful. I love the look on the kiter's face at the end, you can almost feel the stoke.

Nice one!
finally a power kite video without shitty music
This must be a huge rush! just watching when he jumps off the car i can almost imagine free falling! BY FAR best kite control ever witnessed!
this is one of my all time fav youtube vids...Good job!
Alex,,,, is representing MN with pride. Just amazing to watch
@masterkiter89 Its because he is using the lift from the ridge.
That was amazing control with a Kite but the risk is off the charts! Looks like you
love flying so why not give Powered Paragliding a try.

That was awesome. Looked like it got a bit sketchy at times!
NICE HANG TIME. I for one would prefer water underneath me, but you defiantly pulled out the right kite for the amount of wind and you body weight. Good job.
That was awesome! I need to buy me one of those and exactly what he's doing :)
This is so cool.
Be careful and get yourself some thick lines and a good harness :)
Super vidéo ! faire du parapente avec un kite c'est vraiment original ! Bravo!
this is inspiring! just epic! I'm grinning so much right now!
i just dont understand how he gets that vertical lift...is it because the wind being directed upward by the cliffs? or is it simply a lot of wind going horizontally at the kite causing it to create lift?
Serious airtime! Good to see the safety harness on. You'd be screwed if the wind quickly shifted the opposite way. hahaha
that looks so dangerous but friggin awesome! :] i loove the music btw.
I'm new to this sport, but that was AWESOME!!!!
thank you for posting, You fly like a soul, we envy you, we think live is the most precious thing, enjoy carefully
This is a professional folks paragliding is his first passion one skilled pilot here
Awesome kite control !
Totaly awsome dude, respect
this is so nice !
I think that this is the dream of all kiters =)
I mean...you fly !
Kite tied to the ground? Why does it hover above that vehicle all the time?
man this is unreal
it's almost hard to believ it is real
it's like you guys rented a crane and hang the kite lines from it

wow...never try this without tons of experience-cause tube Kites are not constructed to fly with. Rather take a paraglider.
if the depower breaks!! lool ;)the wind blows downside up and is very consistent...it helps
great video...
Incredibly mad skills....!!!
👏👏👏👏
Great video!! I want to learn this:D

I think you just invented the speed wing.

Amazing...how can it be done safely? I fly several 2 and 4 string stunt kites.
Very good ! Where is this hill ??
@sixxxgun in which ways beefed up?
awesome video, but isnt this dangerous to hit the ground once the wind drops?, i'm a paramotor pilot and i drop like 1 meter per second and mine is a 25m³ wing...
How much would something like that cost sixxxgun?
@sixxxgun
i hope hes not using a climbing harness and that hes using what looks like a dakine seat harness
What kite and bar model? Years? Wind speed?
nice kiting. would be good to hear audio from video.
Man, that's awesome..I wish I wasn't so deathly afraid of heights. All I would be thinking about is that kite taking me up way too high! Is that possible, with strong winds? (Like, out of control)
Wow! A bit like the worlds biggest swing!
MAN THAT IS SOOOOO COOL !!!!!!!!!!!!
Dude, you have balls.
Cool video!
that was pretty awesome!
Wicked video dude
what if the kite took you and never came back? still I would take the risk :) lots of fun!
just like to know how he got stared with this, as first try could have been last!! respect is due
The paragliders are going WTF, great kite control
how much was that kite and where do you buy them from?
Cool and superskilled ! Got me smiling :) . However, wrong tool for the job. Somebody riding a unicycle on the freeway would be cool, but silly. Why not try paragliding or even hang gliding ?
Cool... But what if it does a kiteloop? :S :D
Hey 6-gun, do you paraglide? If not you should start. You'd be a natural. You'll get way higher, it'll last longer and you'll probably live longer.
looks like fun after a long day at the office
Actually, because the wind was 22 mph+, it was his Best 13 sq.m.
Total LEGEND!
SUPER ESE VUELO ESTOY EN LA CONSTRUCCION DEL MIO PARA REALIZAR UNO ASI...
Great control!
hows the song called ? :)
hey look, I've just invented a really small paraglider!
unbelievable. perfect balance..
Humans + nature = OP
Very cool dude
It sure has that shit-eating-grin factor going on
wow man, your in total controle of your kite
looks bloody dangerous
UNBELEAVABLE !!!!
Cool :) Thanks for telling me!!!
beautiful. good this one.
@Takoonjah haha yes he might survive the kiteloop crashing on his truck
that's wicked
that is so cool and ballsy
Music: prodigy (minefields)
My firrst question when seeing this video was: ISN'T IT DANGEROUS, MAN !??
Please reply....it's REALLY cool but I am concerned :D
Big hug/Erik
wow shit only 13 m2 how much wind did u have???
amazing dude :)
Bravissimo!
Mr. Wonka warned him about the carbonation...
very crazy currents...
amazing!!
And?
@PieMan424242 yes
about a grand give or take a few hundred.
lol good music
Fantastic
Krass! :-)
That's not dagerous because if one lines break, the kite will do a kiteloop, and you finish on the top! He's not stupid, just want adrenaline!
this thing is going to change my life :D
i have to try that
If that was done in Australia the kitesurfers would bash you and take your kite of you. what's with aussies???
@tquix94 it wouldnt. not unless you made it do one ;)
1:59 i can see him going though the window
just a toy of the Wind!
dobre dobre pozdro
expert!
dito...! nice try, but plenty to dangerous I think!
