If he landed it on the beach, there would be a vitriolic post here about the fkhead noob blah blah who landed on a swimming beach and how all the bans are due to idiots like him etc etc
If he pulled the safety with swimmers around and one person felt a line brush them, it would be just like above.
Tough crowd this one..... nobody in this forum has ever found themselves downwind with no way to get home?
If so, what would you have done if there was swimmers everywhere, a cafe, lifeguards scowling at you, and 10 million bucks worth of (dumb) art exhibition on the beach?
get a clue as to which part of the beach he was on . Nowhere near sculptures by the sea or lifeguards.

Believe it or not you can fly a kite on land. The world wont end.

Definetly KILL THE BABY KILLER, silly maybe but not as dangerous as the guys doing 200km an hour on their bikes past my house. Someone should go pump their kite at the local cafe and take pics for seabreeze.

Looks like a great idea. The smooth grass on the golf course greens would have much less wear and tear on the kite than yucky sand filled with sharp shells.
The only risk is that your kite will luff and drag you in front of a car which will kill you, or fall in front of a car causing it to crash into a mother with a pram and kill her and her baby....etc

I'm a Cott local and this blew my mind...
You do not fly your damn kite across a busy street.
Pull the safety and self rescue.

Its surprisingly not that hard to catch your own kite, - kite at 12, grab the two center lines and pull them down fast, fast fast fast (3 to 5 arm lengths) hold on to the lines with one hand and catch your kite with the other....
Its the best way to land a kite in 5 squair meters of open space. Dont ever let go of the lines untill you have your kite safely put away....
That being said, landing the kite in the water would have been smarter choice of the two.

"Dude, why did the kitesurfer cross the road?"
"Wow Man, to get to the other tide."

Lucky it was a stable rebel with a 5th line. LOL!!!!!
What a douche bag.

Apparantly he is a male model and gets heaps of puss.......so he is a winner

Yep, I know the guy. Local kiter. Got in a bad situation, made a bad call but it ended safely. Demonstrated good kite control and thanks to MattFlyingHigh has some wicked pictures for his wall.
Good on you Matt for not providing assistance - very safe of you muppet.
I guarantee he kites better, harder and higher than most of the whinging kite dorks on this forum including those "holyest of holy" WAKSA members (ALL BOW DOWN TO THEM PLEASE). You guys love to hide behind your little club and its rules as being the best kiters in WA (it is worse than a bunch of grannies at a knitting club).

no, he made a friggin stupid call, and yes it ended safely fortunately,
But demonstrated he has pea brain, with little capacity of logical thought.
Pretty much like your post does......

Realistically though, looking from an outside perspective with litle to no inside information about the incident or the decision making process that lead to it....
You can't blame people for getting up in arms about someone walking a kite down a busy street (even if they had great kite control) as these sorts of bad decisions are made so often by people who werent in bad situations and who then get our sport in the headlines for the wrong reasons.
I would apologise to the bloke for us jumping to conclusions if he was in a bad situation and an experienced kiter however he could admit to making a bad judgement call (if that was the case) because we all do make mistakes.
I don't apologise however for my "weiner" crack... dude... youre a male model!!! expect to get some crap about that! ..... Subtext: (lucky bastard)

sounds like you're the retard who got busted . All it would have taken is for one little luft in the wind and it could have ended up causing a major accident . Bad call or not he is still a dead set dipshiit .

The WAKSA crew are out there in person doing good stuff for us all - even for wankers like you - to get the benefit of.
The only one hiding here is you with your 7 posts and your anonymous slagging.
Not just a dipshiit but not even man enough to put a name or face to your stupidity.
Where does the 80 come from - ur IQ would be a good bet.
And now another one pops up. The anonymous phatman of no posts. What sort of miserable person is it that claims to have an opinion but is too weak and gutless to admit to it. Phathead would be more appropriate.

U gotta be kidding right - but ur not 
Pictures on the wall??? What for - to remind urself AND show everyone else what a totally braindead person u really are.
Id be hiding in shame (eg behind anonymous posts).
This was not a bad call - this was stupidity beyond belief.

Why revive a dead thread? To praise the guy for apparently being pretty? Totally ignoring the homoerotic nature of your post, it's no wonder you don't contribute much because if that's the best you've got to add you're going to get shot down every time.
