Yeah, nice vid for the first time out with the GP. So did you seriously dislocate your shoulder on that self landing??? Brutal!!!
Cassic ending...you can't leave your gear alone for a second in Manzo!

Great video Ryan.
Nice board angle and liked seeing the kite swing around into the picture at times.
Fun to watch.

Nice little vid! What's up with that black dot in the middle of the sun? Don't think I've ever seen that before.

Sucks but it did pop it out. After 13 years, one of my most painful kiting experiences yet was on an average day just trying to adjust my sheet lines. I guess it’s a good reminder! A couple weeks and I will back in the game just in time for an Ireland session. Three weeks and I am going to see if I can find any wind in the land of Guinness.

Thanks for the feedback Rollo, I just mounted it to the front of my surf board and pointed up as far as I could. I did tie a little leash to my foot strap just in case. As for the black dot, no idea it just dose that, it may be a setting that I have not changed yet but I think it helps with the picture.

Bummer man! Injury and loss of gear, BUT when you can actually stuff yourself into your footstrap, that gives new meaning to kite low.

Nice job with the video on your first attempt. I am still struggling with the editing deal and making very crude videos with my GoPro. Bummer about the crash landing at the end, but flying kites on land has got to be the most dangerous part of our job. Best to recruit help if it is available. Good luck with the healing!!

Heal up! Cool footage. It's amazing how dry the lens stays right at water level.
I think the black dot shows when the camera sensor is overwhelmed by bright light. I've seen it on lots of digital cameras. I doubt you can eliminate it. Now I have the Soundgarden "black hole sun" song in my head...

Strap stuff. Classic.
Great vid Viento and you can tell the sheeting line scene was not pleasant. Heal up!
