Thanks growabrain. That was amazing and astounding. Dude has an invisible 3rd arm I'm sure.

I've got a stunt-kite (won it in a contest) and I've never taken the motherfucker out. This is a good prod.

Holy shit. Beautiful stuff, thanks, growabrain. The original Youtube page leads to lots more kite videos and a documentary about Ray.

That is amazing! As always, nice post growabrain.
Love the music with the kite flying too, gives it a sublime feeling, which contrasts nicely with the nut brown stocky body of the kite flyer. He seems to love drama too, making one kite look like it's going to crash headlong into the ground and shatter, while the others soar but then the almost crashing one zooms up. That's a cool trick.
