Snowkiting. Well, sorta!

LOL, great footage! Some pretty thin cover but enough! I love when he skis up and smiles. You can really see the stoke.

That's really pushing the limits of the "must be on snow or ice rule" in the ranking.

Faster than anything I've done yet this season! Nice work Saulius . ;-)

Mood: They're ALL good ideas. Right up until they become BAD ideas.

What the?! What kind of wind (and kahonies) would you need to be flying a 14m Havoc and hitting 54 miles per hour?! PrarieWind talks about his love of speed but....man.....that's fast feet!

If given the choice between 54mph on ice/snow or 30mph on grass/snowish like substance I'll take 54mph.

I wonder what wax is best for rye grass?

LOL thanks Rip! I'm gonna have to go more the range to be on even standing with Saulius tho.

Naaaah. We finally got ice and hopefully I'll get out tomorrow and put in some miles. The season is finally shaping up.
