Unfortunately camera is a little bit shaky and needs stabilization  and some of the tricks are performed very low at the ground and because of backlight are not quite visible. For sure there is plenty of space for improvement. |

I think shooting a good video is no different than tricking your kite. It takes practice practice
practice. I think you've done a good job in both departments.

the image stabilization in the youtube editor works surprisingly well. put the google petaflops on the job and you may like the results.

I didn't liked youtube's stabilizer preview. There were strange distortions in surrounding buildings and I didn't apply it. |

Nice video! really nice flying! I've also experimented with a couple of GoPros, the new Hero 2 has a "narrow" field-of-view HD mode with less fish-eye effect, if you mount it on a tripod and try to fly not too high, you can get some really easy-to-watch videos. Here you can watch a sample:
