  • so freaking awesome!, i want to try this, why are people admonishing these people for being extreme and daring? so what if you shatter your bones? fall on your head and become paralyzed for life? or worse death? shit happens all the time to people everywhere, might as well be for something awesome.

  • What's up with people ragging on these powerkite vids saying "Ooh, you guys are idiots blah, blah...quickest way to get broken bones, blah, blah..."??? I don't see anyone posting comments like that on skateboarding or surfing vids - what's with the gayness? (Not that there's anything wrong with being gay...you know what I mean though) Sack up, bitches!!

  • Apart from getting punched by a spectator, what's that about ? it seems like a very fast way to end up with broken limbs or worse. One flight experience to lie down and avoid methinks. See some real flying on my site if you are interested and of course if you live long enough ;-)

  • make new video plz we want to watch 

  • what would you recommend blade or bullet?Want to get my first kite but dont know which is better.

  • i did this except i landed on my face a cupple of times tryin to do a backflip. it hurtz

  • im gonna try this ! :D

  • @theclemgos thanks man i probably wont go for a sting then, but the blade is too expensive for me at the moment is there anything in the region of £130-200? and what size, thanks for helping me out bro

  • @XXmynameisliamXX Try and find a second hand Blade. Good Luck. Don't go cheap or you will get hurt :)

  • @TyrGaming You walk around with your eyes closed?

  • i want to get a kite, hey its christmas good timing, i was looking at a flexifoil sting 3.3m im 14 and weigh about 7 stone will a flexifoil sting 3.3m lift me? thanks

  • @XXmynameisliamXX A 3.3m Sting may get your 7 stone into the air in the right wind but will drop you like a sack of shit. The stings are not designed for jumping and you will risk hurting yourself if you tried. I can only comment on what I tried for years and that would be the Blades evertime. They never failed me, goodluck with whatever route you decide to go down. PS becareful or mother nature will spank you:)

  • FYI these kites do have safety systems. Kudos on the size of your balls! you wouldnt catch me doing this on a hard cobble beach, let alone with a 4.9 blade or bigger!

  • @OnesandZeros1 The pebbles are the best surface to land on. They move and distribute your weight as you hit them, have saved many a possible broken ankle. I wouldnt do this shit on anything else :) Thanks for the comment

  • The awkward moment when a gust of wind comes by and the guy realizes he won't be coming back down for a while.

  • WHOA THOSE GUYS ARE BAD ASS.. I can tell because of the HARDCORE music and editing

  • wow

  • I'd do it wearing one of those sumo suits

  • whats the name of the song?

  • @ChEvApEr Sick of life - Godsmack

  • Hey, I think I've seen something like this... but better... at the circus.

    The guys posturing at the being made me laugh... so maybe it is like the circus, but without the talent.

  • Damn, you all look really stupid. It's like kite surfing for the poor

  • @airborne101st45 Erm ok!!

  • I'm Glad That These Kids Are Taking Themselves Out Of The Gene Pool :D

  • Your hobby is hardcore whenever heavy metal and fist fights are involved.

  • this is basically kitesurfing without the kite.

    or the safety equipment that lets you control the kite's strength and direction.

    so basically, kitesurfing for idiots that bought the expensive part of kitesurfing (the kite) and didn't bother learning how to actually control a kite.

  • @LegendaryMythril Your right this is like kitesurfing without the kite..and ...water..and...kitesurfboard.­..and...wetsuit....and...depow­ersystem.....oh wait a minute, I know of a few more videos you need to puy that comment on too, start by searching surfing, thats closer to kitesurfing without the kite!

  • @LegendaryMythril It also looks awesome.

  • whats up with the random fight at the beginning? 

  • @ridkidjory It was a random fight that I filmed between some kids I didnt know, thought the attempt was quite funny.

  • You have succeeded in making a stupid sport looking even dumber.

  • i would fuck those two pussies up at the beginning of the video.

  • Comment removed

  • Holy shit, I wouldn't try anything like this, for fear of my bones getting CRACKED. ...Anything?

  • What is this, Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day?

  • I can't help but notice that a lot of the landings are clipped short. Almost as if there was something about them that the people in the video didn't want anyone to see happening at those last few seconds.

    Oh and you've been Cracked.com'd.

  • wow, these guys are tools. my 11 year old brother does this, its really not that hard. stop it with the lame "we're so hardcore" music

  • WHITEBOYZ BE KKRAZEEEEEEE

  • Don't suppose you know the size of these kites?

  • @gobulty 4.9m Blade 3, 6.5m Blade 3, 8.5m Blade 3

    

  • DO U NEED A 4 LINE KITE TO DO THAT, OR WOULD A 2 LINE STILL WORK?

  • @anthony3leaves im only just getting in to jumping 4 line kites. but with two lines you have no de-power line so its harder to get a nice landing and you may end up being in the air for a long time at the winds mercy.

  • were u using "foil kites" or " LEI kites"????????????????????????­?????????????(THE QUESTION MARKS ARE TO GAIN ATTENTION, TO RECIEVE A HIGHHER CHANCE OF BEING AWNSERED)

  • @anthony3leaves Coudnt make out the questions due to the amount of question marks

  • @theclemgos Must be a super slow idiot then. Read it carefully !!!!!

  • @CKeShoes Being ironic doesnt work online then.... Firstly, it shows them in the video, If watched the answer is very clear. Secondly, I wont answer due o the stupidity of asking. Thirdly, Your making the point on behalf of someone else online? Realy. Final and the most important point.... Your Mum!!!

  • For anyone staying in Brighton - AVOID Millards B&B on Broad Street. The owner is a two bit thug. Just check out the reviews left at "millardsofbrighton.(dot)blogs­pot(dot)com"

  • Yeah just turn the sound off and it's an awesome video!

  • question from a begginer to any experienced rider :

    as a begginer, which kite should i get?

    i want an easy-to-use kite that specializes in stability and speed. (im a begginer)

    id appreciate a reply. thank you

  • doesnt impress me any more, kitesurf in 7m weather, pop it

  • @scarfy1988 lool? you mean you kite with some depower tubekite on water don't you?? guess you have never flown a blade or any other proper traction kite..

    what these guys are doing is about the scariest thng you can do..

  • @shurtugal156

    Actually i static jumped on land for a year and i own a mark 3 10.5 blade ;) i just think kitesurfing in 40knots with a 7m C Kite and boosting is better for me anyway

  • i love doing wat he does at 2:19

  • sick video man u dudes are insane with that kite

  • awwwwwwwwwwesome

  • guys,i had read a little about it and i want to buy one.in the book it says :if you have wind from 5-15knots you should buy large kite for example 10m.the smaller wind the bigger kite you should buy to avoid overwinding?is that trune.im novice and big fella

  • @rcheliking blade 5 6.5m

  • I wonder what technique you use to make big jumps like that.. I've got a Rhombus Firebee 5.5, just started kiting this year. Getting _some_ air but nothing like this, even at 6 bft its nothing like that, though it should be. Ive read about 'how to jump' but if i steer from 3 o clock to 12 o clock i get only horizontal pull, and when i steer it up theres barely any lift. I just dragged 30 feet forward. What am I doing wrong?

  • @Pogost1ck You need to hold back longer before you allow yourself to getting pulled. Wait until the kite is half way through the window then turn it upward, when it is facing up jump at the same time. Should pull you forward and before you hit the ground give you some pull upwards softening the landing..

  • You're crzy, men

  • can u do tht with a regular kite and if not what type of kite is tht

  • @jms4323 Yeah of course you can do this with any kite. The ones from Asda are the best ones.

    Damn man........can you do this with any kite (little smirk)

  • hey man. i got 3 qustions 1.can you steer it left/right.2.do you need to put a lot of pressure on your wrists?.3.what kite is good for 14stone reggular bloke who learns very quicly,just dont want to buy another kite within 2 weeks later only becouse its not giving me enough adrenaline:...thanks

  • @MrRychu85 .1 left or right works. 2 only just a bit more than your body weight. 3 blade 5 4.9m or 6.5m

  • Yaahh! this is just great,does Brighton ever have a kite festival??I came down to live here 3mths ago+took my little stunt kite out on the downs this morning ,,fucking great;),

    ,Let me know please if there's any kite festivals down here,I have a couple of lovely hand built kites+have designed a few myself,just need the carbon fibre rods as I already have the ripstop,.I only have a 6ft diameter flexi foil+4ft box kite,this looks really great fun..thank you,could watch all day..peace Sophie

  • @MsMagicalCat Yes brighton has a festival around july at stanmer park normally the weekend that falls closest to the 8th...my birthday.... The kite shop in brighton closed but you still should be able to get them online. The Highwaymen do kite spares. (search google)

  • this is an insolt to are sport

    

  • @118harry118 To many mistakes to discuss

  • please tell me where i can get one of theses kites!

  • Thats all cool but who one the fight at the start?

  • i gotta give props i would never do this shit

    

  • -.-

  • Next stop - Brighton Royal Infirmary - Accident and Emergency

  • @RonSkem Come on. You've got to admit that this looks really fun.

  • O Jesus, son of Mary! Is thy Lord able to send down for us a table spread with food from heaven

  • I love to do Kitesurf ....but this iy`s something crazy as well....love u guys!!

  • just kidding that looks awesome

  • get a life!

  • how big are these kites?

  • That looks like fun

  • WATCH OUT FOR THOSE MICROB/URSTS...TALKING FROM EXPERIENCE.

  • that was fuckin phat ... i seen u guys doing this as im local

  • 0:28 ehhhhhm..........fail

  • Nice jumps, music less nice....

  • pussies

  • what a lame bunch of carnies. . . i bet they're into unicycles and fire twirling as well. . .

  • what size r the kites u r using

  • loosers, u should learn how to kitesurf, what r u doing is not even extreme

  • birghton sucks dick

  • I hate Godsmack

  • @TheNextHendrix14 nobody cares what you like or not ;]

  • i saw the strings!! u guys werent flying!!!

  • @RiseagainstWINS are you fucking serious, read the title

  • @ElectricKiwi lolololo i was kidding

  • @RiseagainstWINS ur retarded

  • @ExplodingThunder never... the wind has to stop eventually lol... although some people have been caught in gusts and gone up a good 200ft!

  • freaking russians....

  • what size kite are you using in this video? Im thinking about getting a blade iv 4.9 but after looking at that comment that you sent to zoopezoop, im not so sure... problem is that im 6 stone!

  • @itsmeordadog If you are 6 stone I seriously wouldnt reccomend getting a blade 4.9. Im 13, 8 and a half stone.

    I have a Tribord 3.5m and thats powerful enough to lift me 10ft in the air in 5mph winds, in 10mph winds I can normally get about 20-25ft. A blade would be way too powerful for me and you. If you were 6 stone and flew a 4.9 blade im pretty sure it will either break your arms or carry you 200 ft lol. Check out my kite vids, hope I helped (:

  • @kEZzmAn1000 well, ive been using the blade 4.9m for ages now and I basically get 10ft - 12ft jumps high and about 20ft across. And I use prolink handles so the harness takes the strain off my arms. But I never jump with the harness attached because it's too tedious. Although I can't get much lift out of it at all really. I just need practice I guess...

  • @itsmeordadog hey im a noob to this power kiting, but i want to buy one, what should i do first?

  • @theoneandonlymeyupyu if you are a fully grown adult I advise a 3-4m kite to start with but if you are like 6-9 stone I would get a 2.5-3m kite to start with. Flexifoil is the best company for kites. I have been using my 4.9m blade IV for a while now and I can quite easily get about 15ft jumps out of it in 10mph winds. Just be careful when jumping to not go too high! This is why you get a small kite...

  • @itsmeordadog thanks man, one more think, do you have a link where i can buy one? in usa, also is 3 line bar better in jumping than 4 line with two handles?

  • @theoneandonlymeyupyu i prefer jumping with 4 line handles but thats my style many would disagree. UK companies will ship abroard but look at flexifoil online - the kite you want is the blade 5 6.5m, they will have usa distributors on the site, let me know how you get on.

  • НАЧАЛО КЛИПА НЕ БОДРИТ А ВОТ ТЕМУ ПОДДЕРЖИВАЮ

  • Hi guys,

  • the kid that threw that fail punch in the beginning is a real bitch

  • You guys are fucking crazy..........now i have to have one!!!!!!

  • I don't get it. I mean the water is right there. Why not get an inflatable kite and a board, hell even just use the kites you have and get a land board, and do something other than dangle?

  • watched this video too many times.... seriously doesn't get how 105 people can dislike this unless they're scared

  • this vid is actually pretty sick haha with the fight at the begining

  • what kite should i buy...i am 12 years old and weigh about 98lbs

  • where can i order one of these? online wise or an american store that might have one let me know please!

  • @GuitarGuy984 they dont sell awesome stuff like this in america

  • Better with an harness...

    Dangerouse without Harness...

  • @PARaIRdrenaline and that what it's all about

  • @PARaIRdrenaline you use harnesses with depower kites with a bar not with handles

  • @marshall7447 u can use harness with handells

  • @darkbow98 like a waist harness?

  • @marshall7447 You can use a waist harness with handles, use a leash strap to connect the top of your handes together.

  • @fungerlow17 huh i didnt know that

  • 3:07 sweet!!

  • That is some sick jumping!!! XTREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEME!!!!! lol

  • Das ist sooooo geil!!!! hab bis jetzt nur ein kleinen Magma 4.0 ausprobiert aber die sprümge sind der Hammer!!!  !!RESPECT!!

  • Is there any chance the kite will catch some wind and carry you like 200 feet in the air?

    Cause I would do this, but if that happens sometimes, then fuck it.

  • Brighton is Gaytown in the UK.

  • @ella2rox if oyu live in the uk or in europe go to decathlon, im almost 100% sure they'll have kite big enough to do this ;) ive got a 3.5m squared kite thats good enough fr beginners and can easily get you off teh ground... got that at decathlon

  • 0:31: POWNED

  • whats ur wind? i fly with a 9m but can only get about 10mph so i cant get that insane air like in this video

  • crazy sht

  • SICK!

  • That looks funner than hell

  • this is nuts!! I like it ..but aint too fond of the fighting at the beginning....what on earth are you guys flying to take off like this..totally mad.love it+love that stretch of the beach too..was going to make a joke about 2 "oh you youngsters."..but I was just as crazy once upona time :)..what are you flying by the way?.

  • omg, these guys jump with zero style at all, Oo

  • omg when u jump u guy wobble like shit man,  zero style at all...

  • This was amazing! Where do I get such kites and at what cost?

  • i got a kite as well mostly because of a friend and because of this vid. mine is a cirrus pro 5 m probably not as good as urs but i am a beginner . i am so looking forward for my next weekend. thanks for inspiration guys :)

  • cool as fuck,thats amazin kiting

    just bought a radsail pro 3m,dont think ill match them jumps to,but lookin forward to being pulled along my local beach next weekend :)

  • i liked the flying hippie

  • This vid has made me get a new kite, just bought a blade 4, 6.5m. im used to using a bullet 4.5m, hope i dont die! :-D great vid.

  • I got a beamer IV 4m for Christmas and I am already addicted to power kiting. I am looking for a new kite made just for jumping, but don'know what kind of kite to get. What is a good kite brand that is only made for jumping and I am looking for a 6-7m size.

  • you guys are awesome !!

  • Brave boys, wish i had the bottle to have a go. see my music video for brighton on my page,, just been uploaded

  • What's with the two pansies fighting at the start?

  • ok this might sound like a stupid question but i have a 4 slingshot and im lookin for alot more power. i wanna jump ad high and long as possible. now would a pansh ace 8m or 12m be better for kit jumping? obviously the 12m has more power but im wondering if the speed differences in the kites would make a difference in that you need the perfect balance of speed and power. which one should i get for the biggest jumps?

  • go in the water and make unhook lol =D

  • 0:31 ROFL!!!! if he had connected that would have been a cracker!

  • Nice vid

  • Brilliant Video mate , i live in Brighton and am doing videos on Summer sports this is totally somthing i think could be of interest, do you still do this?
