Rider Profile: Jim

Name: Jim Patterson
Team: The Buggy Team

Nickname: ‘Jimbo’
Started Kiting: September 2001
Discipline: Free Standing/Scudding/Buggy beginner
Rider Info:
While walking the sands of St Andrews noticed the bright coloured kites at the far end of the beach wandered along to watch and within an hour a two had a 3 metre bronto up and above my head, introduced to the sport by Dan of Wind And Water and the following day had made my first purchase a 3 metre flexifoil blade 2, have acquired a couple more blades etc since then and generally found scudding on the beach with my Brooza’s. Recently tried bugging and hoping to improve my skills in the near future using a race type buggy. I generally fly in the fife area and have had 7 good fun filled years within the kiting community and I am now looking forward to the future in assisting TK promote our sport where ever I can.

Tricks: Scudding and using the full window for static flying
