Kiting Accident S. Side

A visiting P2 pilot inflated on top of the South Side in 20 mph wind. He was pulled three or four feet in the air and when he landed he broke his leg. He was using a smaller than normal paraglider which may have made him think that the 20 mph winds would be less of an issue. We are all encouraged to avoid be smart about flying  in strong conditions even when we are using smaller canopies.
