It must be fake footage cause I ain't seen no one around Perth flying like this !!

Cheers

According to my local Cabrinha salesperson who was at the cabrinha conference earlier in the year this guy might be coming to Perth in the next few months.
And yes it is real.

Yep Updrafts, light rider, big kite, good flying. Anyway you can get a full video on youtube of this with the kite in it.

I have seen Ian Young pull 100-150 meter long jumps 10sec+ at Pelican Point in 15knots.

I would say you should spend some more time watching kiters, instead of talking gear on the grass with other poleys :-/ ( In general)

Yea nothing fake there, it's kitelooping and alot of kite swing and exceptional flying skills he's probably got parasailing back ground.
Anyway I have only seen one other guy fly like this and thats Chasta and he does it all day.
