Thats not so rad !
They've got chutes !

Kiting is probably more dangerous !

id be cool if you could jump out a helicopter with your board attacheed and your kite in a bag and it self inflates and you just ride on...



i've seen a video of a guy landing a skydive with a 3m trainer kite rigged up to a parachute harness. He was ****ing travelling though, came down on about 5% glide slope and slid on his feat for 50m.
