I'm a hang-glider pilot and one of our para-gliding friends posted this vid on the 'net. Seeing as you guys enjoy playing with the power of "kites", I thought you might find this vid very interesting, however I don't think you need to worry about dust-devils on the ocean...

LouD: I've just emailed the guy who originally posted the video to find out more details. One thing's for sure, I feel safer in my hang-glider with the rigid wing right at my control(?), than I would under a temperamental bag of washing; especially on dust-devil prone days inland.

I'll post what I find out more about the vid...
