In regards to times i work nights so i kinda check the replys when i get home .Totally understand bigger kite flys with much lighter wind just curious to know if going from a 2.0 fury to somthing like the blade iv 4.0 is to big a step should i go for a 4.0 size kite but not the blade thats all thanks Mick:blush:

:)Ok my boys and i have been flying our ozone fury 2.0 and luv it ,i took it out the other week in huge winds and got dragged all over the oval on my butt have not had grass stains on my jeans like that since i was my boys age .So were officially bitten i just have not been smacked YET!!!.Have a munro grommet board for the boys hope to soon get my own board just pondering on which kite to get next for myself ,i want it mainly for landboarding or just jumping but i want air i want LIFT!! ,size im thinking at least 4.0 and i like the sound of the blade iv just wondering what any of you guys think as its a purchase u wanna do once for each size kite you get and is that to big ajump from a fury to a blade iv , i mean i can see il have ta get maybe a 1.2 or 1.0 for the boys as well for when the fury is to strong (justkitesurf think im going to need a few of them registers u mentioned one for each room in the house and one in pdf formatt as a screen saver) .Any info would gladly be appreciated i know the best thing would be is to get out there and meet up and have a look at what some of you have but just to ease my mind for now any info would be great . thanks Mick

I couldnt think of a cooler pet , just feeding it would be a bit of a drag be like feeding the familly wagon (awd 5.7l fuel is no option) -
Gday guys im so keen on gettin out anywhere to try out the new fury with the lads and to meet up with you guys .Am really hoping ta make it out there at riverwood on saturday but have been committed to a road trip ta melbourne with a mate ta pick up his husky 610 dirtbike some time friday, straight down and straight back so i will be throw'in the fury in with me ya never know when the wind might pickup its like i spend so much time lookin out the window at the trees now.so im hoping il get back in time ta shoot over ta riverwood and meet up but if you all head ta stockton thats cool judging by mayday im thinking you guys would be wanting ta do it more often it looked awsome i know once ive been up there i wont wanna wait to long ta get back up there for it.Look forward to meeting up with you all soon will keep an eye on here ta see if you are going ta meet up anywhere around sydney on saturday Mick

oh man this is the best site you guys have thought of every thing that kite purchasing excuse register sounds like just the thing we'll need after our maiden voyage with the fury (michael looks over shoulder to see if theres any movement what so ever outside)

I know this is probably classed as spam but were the new boys with our new first kite (ozone fury 2)thanks heapsto jon at kitepower for the help with the kite just wondering if we could just get a little wind please not to much to ask this is like getting ya first dirt bike during a spark plug shortage why does god have to be so cruel.

Hi to everyone just joined up after visiting the guys at kitepower in sydney my 2 boys and i are looking forward to getting our first kite probably a 2 mtr quattro or fury untill i learn to fly then move on to somthing bigger for myself .The three of us are thinking in the direction of land boarding .so far weve been messing around with a 2 mtr dual line foil so we cant wait to see the change in power from somthing of decent quality (we only paid $10 for this foil )can give.Were all hooked and want more power ,really peeved we didnt make it to stockton sounded as though it would have been a great weekend but hey the money i saved on fuel will just get us the kite sooner look forward to hearing from you guys and getting any helpful info we can once we get started .
