Who Made TV News

Post by Bob » Tue Feb 28, 2006 9:14 pm

Came into work this morning and my office mates were chatting up the wind of yesterday. They said that some kiter made TV after a session and was totally stoked about the session....

Anyone know who the poster child for winter kiting was?

I heard about that too, don't know who it was though, I'll see if I can find out.\

If in doubt, do it.

That may have been us! Was is KTVU Channel 2 ? I live over in San Rafael in the Peacock Gap/Glenwood area (East San Rafael near China Camp).

I called the guys for a sesh and 4 of us were out there when a camera guy showed up.

Good fun for 3+ hours. Not too cold or rainy either.

Found it.

http://www.ktvu.com/video/7528126/detail.html

There is about 5 seconds, about 2/3 into the clip.

If that link doesn't work, try www.ktvu.com, look for "MARIN HEADLANDS: Gasia Mikaelian Reports On High Winds At Golden Gate Bridge"

Josh, do you work for the FBI? You seem to dig up anything people talk about on here. Can you find a video of me on TV. I was driving a honda powered lazyboy I made. I was carrying a poseidon's trident. It was for the home and garden channel. Sounds random but it made it on tv. Just curious. My business name is Metalmorphic. My name is Yuri Reiter.
