a bitcrushed GIF of fisheye action cam footage of kiteboarder Yücel Paralik gliding around above the sea with his sport wing; he's wrestling with his kite to wing to stay aloft as it spins him around chaotically, and it was hard for Hitstun to find a 15-second clip that loops decently well

So he's got to hold on to that bar or he's seriously injured or killed? Damn, it sounded fun until I saw this 😦

    He went out there looking for big air. He had to control the wing at all times, but at least he's harnessed into the wing, so he wasn't hanging on for dear life or anything.
