Well said Ted but......do explain why when you go to the Outer Banks...and kite against V2's...and the wind backs down to true 7-8kn...Ted B wrote: Dimitry is one of my great kite friends and he is passionate about his gear and I Really respect him for this.
How can you blame him for wanting to tell the world...
Yeah I was thinking the same..what part of this thread is hating?Jono 111 wrote:Come on Ted, you can have a giggle like everybody else is (apart from those connected with Epic).
I don't see any hate on this thread, just people having a chuckle about how ridiculous these claims have become.
Laughing is good for the soul.
That's one of many options Personally, I found the 360s funny as hell!Flight Time wrote:Anyone who happens to be trying to fly their kite in circles in no wind instead of kicked back with a cold beverage and a good book has a little problem.
At that point, the kite is about as good as a birthday balloon, so might as well land it and find something better to do.
let's do some 360's in 0 wind to celebrateFlight Time wrote:

Once again, FIXATING on the 2 knots. Just get over it and assume he said 5-6 knots. Perfectly reasonable, and who really cares? Let me restate Dimitri's claim.tautologies wrote:Yeah I was thinking the same..what part of this thread is hating?Jono 111 wrote:Come on Ted, you can have a giggle like everybody else is (apart from those connected with Epic).

I think Dimitri's engagement is exactly why people aren't hating...but if anyone that holds a different opinion is either a hater or a pimp then we'd be in problems.
I think mostly that people are reacting to claims that is not consistent with their own experiences.
TedB: You have to agree that a 2 knot claim even if it is on a SUP is pretty unreasonable?
