Hey Kiting Guru's, I watched a couple of dudes land their kites today up on the grassed area, (up near the car park) where we pump up at Brighton. Out of curiosity is that a red card offence 
or would you class that as something ok to do
???? Pardon my ignorance if this seems like a dumb question....
.....I don't kite that location any more due to over crowding and other issues, however some of the things I saw lead me to believe that there would be the odd person who would be stupid enough to try it.....
Couldn't be Brighton on Botany Bay. Surely no one would be stupid enough try it there.
If its Brighton in WA, then yes it is a red card offence. Dont do it! Everytime I see it done, I send a little prayer that the pine tree will catch it, right at the top.
A few weeks back I saw a tool wrestling his very overpowered 12-13m kite up the walkway (stopping to brace himself from going over the fence several times) before landing on the grass and nearly shredding the kite on the tree. 
Best bit was he was wearing a hoody and trackies with his harness. Now that is new..
Just hope in future he does add any onlookers to the Darwin tally.
There is a metal wire fence about 30 metre long with timber post, why would you even attempt to walk down the path with the kite rigged up????
Some people are weird
I land mine on the grass at brighton in vic, because i know that with my 20m lines it'll drop behind a bush, everyone else ends up on the road 
"Best bit was he was wearing a hoody and trackies with his harness. Now that is new.."
hahaha are you fk serious? a hoodie and trackies? thats awesome...ly gay, no roller blades with ugg boots over the top? or did he just cruise off on his razor scooter popping over a few 6 inch kirbs on his way back to the blue oyster??
can the OP update his location sop we aren't talking about the 30 different brightons around the country
If this was in WA, guidelines advise against this.

However, this has not yet been widely publicised. As local and knowledgeable users of the area, I think we should approach people to inform them and perhaps make a new friend!
Brighton UK? Happens all the time, we need the car heads lights, as the daylight hours are really short at the moment.

) Must have lost his black beanie in the surf.. but wifey asked me not to chat to him. I do as I'm told.
