The111 1 #2 June 2, 2005 Check this video out, Bryan. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1518064#1518064 Direct link to video (not streaming) here. Those things look damn cool to me but it's yet another expensive toy. I want to get into normal kitesurfing but $$$ is holding me back. The kitewing is newer, more of a fringe thing I think (kitesurfing is gaining popularity) but looks cool in its own way.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Costyn 0 #7 June 9, 2005 This looks awesome. Especially the guy flying down the hill... Although I'd rather have a chute over my head of course. Too bad I'm no good at skateboarding, skating, skiing, iceskating, or any of the other sports they show in the demo video... My guess is you have to be fairly proficient at these sports before you can take one of these wings along. Very cool concept though.Costyn van Dongen - http://www.flylikebrick.com/ - World Wide Wingsuit News Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
