| All the stuff at the Rufus ponds were on his 11. The very first hooked in loop, kiteloop handlepass 7, and a couple others (at Stevenson) were on the 9... But the bigger kiteloops were all 7!

So after these enormous kite loops, and getting pulled what looks like several hundred feet down wind, does Ruben then work his way back up wind, or is someone shuttling him back at the end of the session?
Hard to imagine that normal everyday joes could ever dream about doing kiteloops like this, without a support crew to get you back to your launch.

Ruben was doing it all himself. On that windy, loop-day it was probably only taking him 4-5 reaches to get back up, just because he rides so powered.
At the ponds, he got a little lift from Amery, but only for the last 1/4 mile or so... And that was just so he didn't have to 500ft reaches!

| hey adam, I Dl'd the movie at the office and when I played it the sound seemed a little off and some of the scenes were a little jumpy. Not super jumpy, but enough for me to notice. can a video get messed up during a download?
