THIS. IS NOT. A "HANG GLIDER".

It just...itches...me that people have a hard time calling us kitesurfers these days.

Oh and BTW the kite used is a 2013 North Evo.

EDIT: Multiple comments from Youtube and Liveleak are saying that the kitesurfer died as a result of this accident. I can't find an official source confirming this.

The first version of this video I saw had supposed comments from original video poster, that the guy was unconscious upon reaching him, but he regained consciousness a few minutes later, concussion and lots of bruising, broken ribs...

Hope that is the case and it's not a dead guy...

Tide? What's a tide? Man, it's 1000 miles to any ocean.
