Think the kite is slowing down the windsurf board considerably

C'mon Mikey. I've got the kite. You've got the pole. Let's dance baby!!

Note sure why the kiter in the video keeps standing with his back to the pole dancer. I wouldn't do that. Maybe he's trying to do a buttock grab on the pole.

I would actually have liked to see them turn round, that my friends would have been impressive.

Without a turn... It's ok, but nothing worth watching twice.

OK, but will I have to use a condom? Safe water sports, and all that. My pole is a standard diameter by the way, no one of those skinny rdm thinggies.

Pretty impressive. I wonder how many attempts they had before they got it right..

So the board also needs foot-straps at the front !

But yes, a gybe would have been impressive.

^^^^^yes,,your right,
A dancer rig would just slow us down,I guess the kiter in the first vid who jumps on the dancer board might have just felt sorry for his old mate,so tried to give him a tow
