Can't get back to this soon enough.
Feeling pretty psyched to have a shoulder that will work this winter. Last winter I was down an arm and still had some good speed sessions.

You say you did 76 mph in that video...Wow!
That's a crazy speed.... but not really surprising in light of the fact you are kiting in 40 knot (46 mph)gusts!
Imagine taking a fall at that speed. Melt your nylon jacket!
So lucky to have a lake 6 blocks from where I live. Hope it's another cold winter near Boston.

Here's another video to get in the spirit of snowkiting. I especially liked the guy jumping with the vapor.

Awesome! Injuries and getting old in general sucks. I've got less to moan about than some on here, though it's hard to count your blessings when
you're seriously banged up, eh 
Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...
