Yeah. I want to see them.

Have some people wondering about the kite skim strapless thing. I figured easiest way to show would be to start a NWKite thread with postings of your favorite kite skim vids.

Mostly looking to see all the different ways people ride skims with kite. Airs, transitions, skate style, sliders, ligthwinds, etc.

Look forward to the show.

Chanson.. Stringer.. Gman... I know you guys got the goods... let's see some!

its worth noting that in some of the shots, he is riding a skimboard with fins, which is umm, kind of defeating the purpose of a skim board but the guy hits the sickest kickflip I have ever seen right in the beginning of the vid.


poor video quality, but shot in LV (man I miss that place)

Shinn was the first kiter I watched that made me realize the potential skims have in a kiteboard quiver.
