That has got to be the most pointless invention i think i've ever seen.
Honestly, what self respecting kiter is going to go "hmm, awesome just what i need"?
Not to mention all the lines now fouling everyone else using the same piece of water.
Sorry, not my cup of tea really

[edit] Having a bad week. need saltwater.

More like wanker with an anchor

We don't have any self-respect left, that's why we kite but if we had any respect or dignity left this contraption would surely strip that away as well.

I dont really get what he's doing but it looks fuggin stupid!

maybe he should try this instead

Looks great... I hope they use a super thin stainless steel wire between the rig, as to cut our heads of nice and clean

Seriously, these "inventors" have run out of ideas.

the effort to fun factor isnt high enough

i dont mind it , i recon the quickest boat would be a real glider with a hydrofoil at the end of a cable like this. Its good that people are trying new things.

That's not really a boat then is it. It's a plane with a hydrodynamic anchor.

yeah might not be a boat but i recon it would be fast fun but maybe really dangerous , maybe you could fly it in hydrodynamic anchor mode get some speed up then pull up the anchor and glide up in the air that would be cool like this sailing blimp concept i saw .

He needs a UV filter on his video camera and darker subtitles.

the guy is having fun and trying something new - no reason to hate on him.

yay, oh whoops i meant gaayyyy
