  1. I've booked from the 18th till the 27th.

  3. They look fantastic!! Hey just a reminder, when the wind is pretty light Dougie there are tapes at the bottom of the outside cells and you tie them shut.
  4. We have the same hassle here. Winter storms have removed a hell of a lot of the width of our beaches.
  5. G'day Pari. Very clever mate. I loved your wheels and now this is true craftsmanship once again. Keep the pic coming it's looking awesome.
  6. Thanks Juan. I have a 15m Chrono V2 and a 15 R1 and they are very different kites with the Chrono 2 being MUCH more docile. Would love to buggy with an Aero just to compare. It looks fantastic in your videos. Even the Ozone R1 V2 is dulled down from the original R1's. V2 is much lighter, has better manners, incredibly delicate materials, but seems to lack the top end speed of the first R1's. Would love to know if it's just my imagination. I also love my 18m Joker 7 ELF. Its one hell of a kite. Extremely well behaved and goes like hell when the wind comes up. Been to 76kmh with it. Would love to get an original 21m R1 to get buggying in really low wind. If anyone has an old one, or I would even consider a damaged one I can repair. Cheers.
  7. All good fun!. How does your Peter Lynn kite compare to the Ozone?
  8. Great times. Tapping my toes along to this.

  10. How did you manage to run into him Juan as you seem to be looking that direction. I'd love to buggy with you guys but can only speak English and live the other side of the planet. Another great video. I love your efforts. Keep them coming mate. Cheers.
  11. Ha ha. Ahh thanks, so that's where I was getting ballzed up. Andy got married last month!
  12. Thank you Kevin. Now I just have to track down that bridal line Andy gave me.
  13. At 2.33 he mentions the fabric is also less than half the weight of dacron at 70gm2 so agree with you Kami. Unreal materials that may even be Lukin proof. Eh @roblukin
  14. Starting to get organized @KaoS. I know, I know Kevin. Yes WA stands for Wait a While. These measurements are to the plastic end caps? If so, then I would have to add some extra bridal for attachment loops and knots to get to these final figures? Cheers.

    Sysmic S3

    Now I love my old Sysmic 2's but this is really compact! All alloy and into a bag for travel which is pretty cool. Or just folds up. And a fibreglass axle. http://www.buggykiteshop.com/index.php/buggy/sysmic-s3-a.html
  16. That's bloody brilliant!!!
  17. That looked like an intentional exit at 1.27. ? Thanks once again for sharing your adventures.
  18. What a great video!!! Ha ha, I feel his pain. It took me a good while to change over from my Peter Lynn Vapors to Ozone R1's. It wasn't till Pete from New Zealand gave me a few tips and got me up and truly running depower, then I've never looked back.
  19. Fantastic video!!! The buggy at 4.46 is neat with the rollbar fitted Juan. Is it because he's hotwired?
  20. Yes Cheers for that. I saw that on facebook some time ago. I was going to get a depower set for my 5.4 Vapor but it was almost the cost of a new kite for his conversion. It was a complete new set of bridals for the conversion.
