Default Who else flies kites for a hobby...this will make u laugh!!

I've only had my 3.5metre bullet about 3 weeks and so far my injuries are:

Cracked my head open, sprained my groin twice.....can hardly drive my car......and twisted my ankle, grazed elbows and legs v badly ripped a v nice pair of jeans to bits last wednesday the winds were v strong and I took the kite up and the bloody thing dragged me for about 30mtrs on my feet and then my feet decided to grip so I decided to run with it much to my horror I was going about 30 mph, so I let go and the breakes came on and I was dragged until the kite came to rest about another 60mts....this might sound like a bit of unreal, but believe me it was not.... so many people saw it happen they gave me a round of applause but I absolutely love the experience as you get such a rush from it and it also keeps you fit..........have got a couple of m8t's down the beach that have given me some advice on how to handle it..................my wife now want's a 1.5mtr bullet.
Have now bought myself some elbow and knee pads for xtra comfort

Cheers
