I saw you do a huge jump yesterday" means "I looked down from my even bigger jump and saw you"

I am going to put together a collection of famous kiting comments both from fellow kiters and spectators from Aus and around the world.

Any trick that was preceded by "watch this..." or "let me try that just one last time...", because it usually ends in tears...

'So the knot closest to the kite is depowered, yeah?'
No, it's not, go the furtherest out.
'Are you sure'
Well I have been kiting for a while
'Yeah, but are you sure?'
Look, do whatever the F*** you want
....
Seriously, someone asked me that yesterday, in about 25kn, they were learning on a 12.

"Why the **** did I leave my other kite at home"

When the winds too light "It's definately picked up 1-2 knots while we've been standing here"

Noob kiter: "I reckon I would progress a lot faster by upgrading from 2009 to 2010"

"I reckon I need something with better bottom end"

Standard response - "Every time you think your lack of performance has something to do with your gear, think again - its ALL YOU"
