Really? awesome! I wanna go to Italy, you kiting there? Where abouts you wondering off to? Hmmm.... sounds tempting, havent been boarding for a good while, last time I went boarding was on the hills round my place, theres some pretty decent runs about and a couple of awesome spacious fields for kiting in but the only problem is that you can only fly these fields from E to N, westerlys arent that smooth. I'll check what time im working for Saturday and see what we can do

Well well, it seems awfully quiet on this forum at the moment. Whats everyone crying about? I know theres no wind but thats no reason to leave the place! anyone got any hopeful plans? I know I sure do, I hope to get a sack loada money and buy a few toys and pay a bribe to the wind gods to let it blow nicely! and @jamesthebat when you say Morfa you mean Conwy right? If that's so give us a message next time your going down and I'll join you! I'm not too far away from there and i like that spot pretty nice. One of these days I'll get a frickin car or van a drive about a bit, stuff this no wind nonsense!

Over time and use I've noticed my depower rope wearing down and the carbon in the centre of my bar eroding, anyone got any bright ideas on how to prevent or prolong the damage?
-
i used hot water and vegetable oil when my inflate zip on my phantom jammed!

just for any future reference Mindless Boards are overpriced 20 ply planks rolling on a set of wagonwheel biscuits and they weigh probably more than your own self lol!
-
Well in my opinion Scrub have always made great efforts to manufacture a reasonable quality array of boards over the years with all budgets in mind, and mainly aimed their purpose as decent mountainboards as suppose to kite landboards. But of course the company now in recognition of our most favoured activity has probably gone to town on this one! Sounds like a decent review and an honest opinion, to tell you straight your probably doing their marketing team a favour in promotional views!! I have always rode on a scrub board and my lion canyon series 2 has done me a proud 3 years and for that i give my praise, but sounds like its days are nearly over!
-
All i got to say is I'm jealous. In the end I just couldn't be bothered because I was so groggy from working the whole last few days but next time a golden oppurtunity like that comes along I won't refuse and especially when Becky doesn't mind being left at home with the baby Anything happening today?
-
@kaz Im trying to stay away from the Rusks but theyre so damn tempting! nom nom., and nah I didnt sell my phanny, I couldnt do it in the end, I love that kite and I also got a bit of a heads up from your Andy telling me to stick with the lilo's and stay away from blimps. Im still thinking of buying a blimp though! Might even get on the water this year if I buy one, just gotta get the cash together first, I know you can pick them up damn cheap but, I'm really that skint! Anyone getting up to anything this week?
-
ah well, doesnt matter that much if im on my own lol Think im going to give it a bash anyway Gotta get out - im piling on the pounds sitting and waiting for any decent weather conditions! You been upto much then Paul?
-
Hey guys, winds turning more Easterly over the next couple of days anyone thinking of getting out anywhere? Might take a trip down to Colwyn Bay / Rhos On Sea tomorrow or Tuesday for a sneaky session providing I get permissions (LOL) Don't know if any of you have trie Colwyn Bay before but I had a great little session there week before last on a 16 mph NE and it's got some nice little hard spaces for everyone whether your boarding or buggying, as long as the tide goes out far enough! Gimme a buzz if anyones interested

Also i forgot to add: If anyone is interested in a 14 Flexifoil Storm, KO and Pump for whatever use then thats for sale @ £50o.n.o as it needs a rib repair. Thanks

Hi Guys, after nearly two years of having this beautiful kite, I have decided its time to sell up and get something, either a; bigger or b) better. So, If anyone is interested I can sell for £250 RTF plus postage, or I am willing to swap for an LEI of equal power (something similar to a 9m atom) The kite is in Mint condition, no repairs. One spar has been replaced. Comes with 04 Bar and 27m lines all in good condition. Bagged and ready to go any interest, just let me know.
-
il swap you my 12m phantom!
-
i gotta 12m phantom?
-
hey, @ Kaz, are you guys still not going to rhossy for the week that you arent going to rent the cottage for that loada kiting you wont be able to do? Lol There is a good possibilty of me taking two trips up there within the next week if i can remember how to set up my kite (as i havent flown for a while) But Either Monday or Thursday is looking good for me, but possible maybe definately Saturday where me Dave and Wayne should be venturing up to the beautiful Windy Isle. How the hell is everyone anyways? Not spoken for a while been busy settling into my new pad
-
Hi all it's been a while since I last posted so I thought I'd drop a line everyone ok? Wish the weather would improve so we could have an epic group sesh again!
-
Well its been a while since i last posted and showed myself on here! How the hell is everyone doing eh? Damn weather, wish it would make up its mind what to do with itself! Been nearly 2 weeks since we last got out, but looking forward to the big Rhossy trip this weekend! yay! @ Karen, What days you coming down for? Can you bring the dirtsurfer along pleeease. I wanna have another blast on that beast of a toy
-
Yup, another great day out with the Phantom down at Rhosneigr. @ Kaz, Rhossy was a pretty good sesh to be fair, although i did smash another bearing case on my board so it could mean im out of action for a lil while til i can eitheer buy or scav some spares. Also learnt & nailed new tricks, so now i have a plethora of skills in my bag! Got foot outs sorted and 360 board grabs coming on cleanly. Conditions could have been beetter though as the winds did get a bit stupid at one point eespecially for Dave flying the 16m Venom Cheeers to Chris and Marie who joined us as well, nice to see you guys out and about again All in all a great weekend of flying fun. Everyone have fun @ BRS?
-
