  • I would like to do this very much!

  • There's scratching, and then there's SCRATCHING.

  • A vida é a verdade no palco de Deus e a platéia já não se resume ao caminho.

  • ...ah! sandy ground effect!

  • Great CONTROL !

  • !!!! "You made me spill my beer" !!!!

    I can't get enough of this video. You should make it into a dvd single!

  • @everythinguwanted HAHAHA. it is one of my favorites. I let myself fall backwards lucky the slope was just enough. It was hard to keep the video going. The rest of time I was on kneeling down.

  • Next time you find those conditions, consider flying a few miles north to the Salinas River and back. It can (and has) been done. :P

  • Definately in my top 5 aviation videos over the past 20 years. Great flying, fabulous videography.

  • Look how many time he just 'brushes' the sand! Amazing. Must have been good thermal and good wind!!!!!

  • fantastic pilotind duude

  • whats the windspeed there?

  • ...Careful, Kenny...! Don't catch a flying

    wire on the tall sign or other obstacle.

    Really sweet dune ridge riding!

  • Amazing Glider Control. Super

  • INSANELY COOL!!!!!! keep flying and i hope to see you at marina beach too i glide there alot

  • haha Unreal!!! :) Thanks so much for the vid! ...gave me goose bumps!

  • Pretty stunning flying there - very inspirational. Really truly amazing low flying - you need strong wind for that, I imagine by the sock in the background?

  • It helps that your name is Kenny :-) The winds were blow'ng ~13-18. Also the direction was good enough to work the bowl. It is AMAZING flying.

  • And what would be happened if he fall to the water?:O As i can see he is roped to that thing :D

  • And what would have been if he falls into the water?*

  • Been there, done that, with Ken-

    One morning I was asleep in my car at the reststop at Weed at the N california border and who's smiling face should I waken too? Ken Brown knocking on my window!! HG is good times!!

  • Neat flying. I spent the summer of 83 working for Flight Designs and flying with Ron Hess & Dan Murphy. Kenny was a fledgling then!

  • I find it funny to see some of these commits making fun of the 'little hill' - I flew this beach and it's 7 mile soaring ridge for years and found it funny when some of those 'big mountain' boys had problems getting close and draging their tips durring the annual Marina Steeplechase speed races

  • I was there one day when a local pilot got to 3500asl in convergence off the dunes, starting at the N end. There was a general scramble to try and get up with him, but no-one else made it. He landed back at the beach as he only had full use of one arm (a disability)! He sat up above the roll cloud for about an hour.

  • Sorry I meant the S end!

  • @49space Well little things amuse small minds

  • i like this.

  • I think Kenny is scared of heights??

  • LOL!!! If I was drinking something I would had spewed it!!

    It is all good fun something I would try. At least not that close!!

    It was very cool to be at the right time at the right place!

  • I heard Kenny's saving up to buy himself a bigger hill.

  • that´s flying !!!

  • Low, Slow, and definitely in control. Fabulous!

  • Kenny, looks like fun! No matter how old we get this hang diving stuff stays with us forever..

    Rich in SB...

  • Outside of being brilliant flying, there is a great quality to all of that. I would have never imagined a hang glider could be flown like that. It's going into my favorites.

  • Enjoyed that, Carm!

  • Awesome flying!!!

  • Cool !!! I must buy glider...and learn to fly :-))

  • Kenny,

    We love you.

  • george - a person can tow another person into the air, not very long, high, or far, I don't think its been done amish style (with a horse) though.

    ABout 16 mph airspeed is needed, so depending on wind, you may have to run, or you can just take a step

  • Yeah, it's been done (towing with a horse).

  • That was awesome. How fast does Kenny have to go to get airborne? Have you ever been towed by a horse?

  • kenny u my HERO!!!!!!!!!!!
