Ahh but going into a wild oversteer and crashing is a built in trick with the SL7; anyone can do it! :lol:

It's designed to remind you of your first dual line experience :shock:

But you will be in the next Trick Out, won't you ;)


You missed the portsmouth trickout where the SL7 exploded midair. I then tethered it, to tend to it's injuries, but before I reached the kite, it dragged a 12 inch metal groundstake out of the ground, into the air, across the arena & hit the head of a 12yr old boy. Fortunately, it was moving so slowly, it was more of a caress than anything else, but it put me off trickouts for life :?

Faith's got a picture of it on her rok though :lol:
Love Veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

To be fair the wind was about 200mph.
