Alternative lyrics to the "In the bleak mid winter" carol, for windsurfing fanatics In the mild windy winter weather, windsurfers go whoop as they speed along maybe try a forward loop they are having great fun, when the breeze is fresh gybing, tacking, jumping, wave riding, they're having a merry sesh
1:32 - we approve I watched a kiter do a mega jump at Sunset last week only to land within 2 m of a windsurfer. I sadly never filmed it. Some reckless folks out there. Have a good Xmas, wishing you wind, cold beer and see you in CT soon. Wind has been great!
I've certainly seen wingers doing all varieties of loops. I imagine they would say that once you've looped on a wingboard...well, you know. Isn't it just nice that we have all of these 'surfy' sports to play with, allowing a variety of persons and places in which to have fun?
As wave sailor in Hawaii, I can remember when kite boarding first came out and the kitesurfing moto was kiters don’t care and this proves it ! They don’t care on the beach and they don’t care on the water !
Lovely waves on the 'secret' spot - luckily the kitejump didn't go wrong... I stay away from those who look out of control - don't get too hung up on staying on course (knowing how to properly sail upwind helps).
I am kitesurfer and for my taste that was a shitty move, because of the lack of distance and he was not getting enough air despite using a kicker wave. So it’s a fail and pretty uncool if you ask me. That said I am missing often that respect both ways on the water. I have experienced it many times the other way around me riding the wave down the line and windsurfers taking off on anything without keeping a descent distance. Respect each other 🤙
Maybe the kitesurfer was just so afraid of the windsurfer that he saw no other option... Anyway, i would love to finally visit the Boot in Düsseldorf and win a ticket or two (one for my brother). Longtime #member and I love this channel. Cheers!
Kind of difficult one. Windsurfers always scream about the right away, when going out through the impact zone - also demanding their right to jump. If the kiter had been a windsurfer everybody would have expectet the windsurfer riding the wave, to give the outgoing windsurfer the right away to get out through the impact zone. In this clip I as windsurfer - would expect the windsurfer on the wave to turn upwind and ride the wave upwind, so I could get the free sailing getting out.
We have a kite-school recently set up where we sail. In my first video ever it shows an instructor jump over me. I trust that this bloke will not hit me as he is highly skilled. It was a super cool moment, looking straight up at a guy in the sky looking down at me. Trouble is, his students do that thinking they are experienced when they are not. One just hit a mates mast in full flight. Half a meter lower and it would have been my mates head - not cool. I was self taught here on a two string c kite many years ago and i know the safe space needed for kites, i'm not sure the students are being taught that these days. Sometimes the space is so busy with kite lessons and learners riding that it increases the adrenaline just dodging them. Some of my best jibes just happened to get the fook outta dodge away from them. Do i wish they were not here? It is what it is. 🤙🏽
2:20 I hate kitesurfers. I understand kite's argument that they had it under control. But $h1T happens all the time and if that $h1T happened it could lead to even death. Safety first, and kite isnt safe for everyone in its huge up to 100m radius.
You r right - I would say, 200m save space r not enough for kiters due the „the sea has not enough space for wind and kitesurfer - 🦠“ of some guys like you. Respect each out there instead of bashing the others. Had lots of sessions with windsurf friends, having fun together and sharing the feelings, which only watersport can give - it worked fine - try it out!
Windsurfers and their long toes. Let's turn the tables, what did the kitesurfer have to do? If he didn't jump he would have gone through the windsurfer. He had too much speed to stop. Most likely the kitesurf shit his pants too, a windsurfer coming downwind like that. Idk I'd say this was the best solution.
Would Fred Hope have jumped the windsurfer? I doubt it. If he wouldn’t, then as a kiter, you should not either. If it was an emergency move where he thought there was no other choice, then I get it.
It definitely is a total dick-move by the kiter. And unfortunately a new „trend“ at the spot in front of the harbour wall in El Medano, Tenerife. Those idiots do their jumping there right over the surfers „jibing area“ downwind after the waveride… It‘s just scary und dangerous to jump over someone else’s head as sometimes these a…holes loose their boards :/
Super uncool move if he doesn’t know the guy - he may be experienced but that makes it even more uncool - should know better and should be able to take evasive action - shows total lack of respect

In the mild windy winter weather, windsurfers go whoop
as they speed along maybe try a forward loop
they are having great fun, when the breeze is fresh
gybing, tacking, jumping, wave riding, they're having a merry sesh
As a windsurfer and kitesurfer... Not cool. If the kiter messes up you can get some serious injuries. Give everyone some space and enjoy!
Kiter was playing, alpha dog. Topped and landed the jump. Love the channel!
We love the Forward loop :)
I want to go to Boot Düsseldorf! Great episode Ben!
Really fun video! Keep on going and sending out there!!!🤙🤙🤙
A very direct “conversation” with this kiter back at the beach would also be very appropriate!
Ben, you’re the MAN!!! Thank you so much!!!! Love your channel!!!
I want to go to the Boot in Düsseldorf!!!! Loving it here!
the secret spot looks dope!

Boosting pole jockeys Is cool if you know them.... but shit form if you just start sending over strangers... we.re all ocean brothers and sisters !

It‘s just scary und dangerous to jump over someone else’s head as sometimes these a…holes loose their boards :/
By law the kite shall be 200 feet away from all others on the water.
Dick move
Lol what law? there would be no space to ride then 😂
😂😂
Super uncool move if he doesn’t know the guy - he may be experienced but that makes it even more uncool - should know better and should be able to take evasive action - shows total lack of respect
Your friend was jealous because he can’t fly like this….but the kiter was’nt secure and had no respect to him :( a pity for seamen
Most kiters who do dickish things are former windsurfers who never improved past a non planing gybe and have mommy issues.
Why don't you guys become kitesurfers so you can do some real jumps and also get more time on the water?
As a windsurfer and a kitesurfer, if the kiter knew what he was doing it's super cool, otherwise it's a dick move.
Dick move either way
Dumb and dangerous
Haha, wo ist das Problem?
Nur weil ihr zu dämlich zum springen seid.
