Kite Buggy Accident Caught on KiteSkyCam...60 Seconds of Hell!! (1 of 2)

This is why helmets are a must! Using my 7 meter kite when winds picked up to 25-30 mph with gusts to 35 mph. Lost control and force broke seatbelt clip and was pulled out of the buggy and dragged for a good 200 feet (60 seconds) before being able to pull release. Smashed head on ground several times, lost both shoes, a few cuts, bumps, scrapes and have a shoulder twice its normal size. Not to mentiion, a big, big headache!
See Part 2 for play by play report.
ALWAYS WEAR YOUR HELMETS FELLOW ENTHUSIASTS!!!!!

This is why, after 15+ years of kite buggying I still use a back-strap. Safety releases just don't work instinctively. I still haven't seen a design that works as well as the simple back-strap for safety. The draw-back is your arms shoulders and mid-drift all get a mean workout during a good day in the buggy seat.

Dude, for the next Time :
Never ever sit down in you Buggy with Seatbelts closed before you start your Kite !
I know you Guys over there do Buggyjumping, and it looks awesome.
But its always much better to start you Kite first when you stand on you Feet.
A 7 m Kite in 30 - 35 mph Winds sounds scary ...

Man! That looked like a really close shave! A good reminder of "what if ..." !

What did you think would happen with a 7m in 35mph wind??
At no point was it under control, this is not a vid warning about wearing helmets but choosing the correct kite size for the conditions.
