I'll bet my left nut he doesn't kite to work in winter.
'F#*k the carbon emmisions' he says.
Sun don't rise till 8 and gone by 4.
Need about 10mm of wetty and i'm talking gloves and **** for your head too. And thats just to rig up.
Plenty of wind though.
i lived on the seafront at Brighton for 2 years and in winter it used to blow 30 knots plus 24/7, sometimes up to 50knots (so hard my bed in our 5th floor flat would roll around when the building moved)
The few brave souls that kited those winds used sub 4m kites (like the sort you think are only made as displays for really small kite shops to hang from the roof). 'Poor bastards' i used to think.

Good skills tho Geeza, keep it up.
