Unplanned
Had some good wind the other day.. actually GREAT wind. But low and behold after 30 seconds of riding my landboard, one of my binding L-brackets
snapped. I practiced riding with only one foot/ no feet secured, which is probably a good skill to learn.. but i really wasnt feeling it. So i ran
back to my trunk and pulled out a pair of street skates that i had thrown in there to someday try when i had the balls to try it. It was a ton of fun!
Granted i ate it hard, and i was using street skates on a bumpy grass field.. but it was good enough that im definitely thinking of grabbing a pair of
off road skates! I love how many things you can do with power kites!

Hey Samm, get your self some larger wheeled skates and you'll have a blast.
If you cant get some rubber neumatic wheels, get your self some speed skates, the frame under the boot/shoe of the speed skates are longer and the
wheels are larger than the standard street skates, so you have a better flow over grass terrain.

I have a pair of coyote tracks for sale if you want them. You can adapt them to another rollerblade boot (assuming you arent a size 7) and get some 6
inch inflatable skike or scooter wheels.

Spartan has some awesone videos skating! it gives you an idea of what's possible. I have a long ways to go before I'm that good though!
Too many kites, boards, and etceteras.
