Stunning video, thanks for sharing.

I haven't seen any other mega loop video yet where the kite is so far below the rider and the rider still manages to land smoothly.

Well good for you. I've seen lots of hot chick photo's, but I'm still happy to see more. This is a great loop, well worth watching.
