  1. Tim here out of hibernation yeah i've been bogged down with work and what with the late hours i do and the fact that it gets dark or did by 4 in the afternoon i had no time to kite but now its starting to get lighter and its getting closer to summer. I can see the trips to the coast becoming a bit more frequent and we have been down the 7's over the last 2 weeks had to good little plays with the kites and got back into it got 25mph and 23mph on the both days so still haven't lost the bug to much just been too busy with work. you all know the saying all work and no play!

    im addicted too it or was anyway best thing i enjoyed trying to do was the 404 challenge, i pretty much completed it xD i made a tree grow underground, i got ot the neather region had underground swimming pool well above my tree xD a lounage the lot then got bored of it and started to dig to the surface and made a massive water slide xD
  8. we caught the last bit of it completely died down at 8 struggling to keep kites up went out about 6ish had to keep upgrading kites as it got worse and worse still waiting for a half decent day to try the venom in, had one day but was stupidly over powered and just ended up hurting myself but did get some good jumps
  9. that sounds top notch kev , this land boarding melarky seems to have me hooked at the moment still no good at it but seems alot more fun than buggying unless your on a beach!
  10. is gresh still about? im looking at getting a depower foil and had my eyes on either peter lynn scorpions or venoms ? and i know he has a venom
  11. how much you asking for this kite? rtf?
  12. whats the wind range of the 16m and were are you from( for posting reasons etc)
  13. well i dont really have landboard kites, no depowers or LEI's so its a choice of a 3m flo 3.5m rage 4m blade or a 6m cent 2?, have found the cent trys to kill me very often.
  14. hmmm yeah ive been out tonight blasting up and down wasnt realy the best conditions, either no wind or shit loads 6m pkd century 2 going at 17 18mph crapping myself then just plucked me into the sky and came down in a thump haha, but was the fastest ive been even managed 2 powerslides out of about the 40 or 50 i tryed.
  15. Im slowly making a transition from buggying to landboarding, be as it may i am finding it fairly easy except a few hiccups that im hoping you guys can clear up. 1) To powerslide can you do this on grass, i can do it confidently on sand but if i try on grass i seem to just grip too much and it either throws me off forwards or i lean to far backwards and just land on my ass?. The tyres are pretty much brand new on the board still got the rubber spikes sticking off the tyres does this affect it on grass or is it just my techinque? 2) What am i mean to do as i fly inland most of the time wen the kite luffs do i just turn downwind and wait for the kite to power back up and then steer back to my course? 3) What is my next thing to start learning riding toeside? any advice is welcomed cheers ( fly fixed bridles on handles)
  16. i wouldnt say so rich, i go one way about 10mph then start screaming like a little girl haha then stop then go back make slightly quicker then scream like a little girl then try and skid to a stop and go the other way in one motion and just went smack on the ground! lol but its good fun to learn something new
  17. pissed it down all weekend but got a good 4 5 hours worth of kiting down the beach and had some fun in a pub and the amusements in talybont, but on a side note ive just racked up 31.5mph down the 7's was stupidly windy! and had a good crack at landboarding all im gunna say is them tyres need some wear on them rich they grip stupidly well!
  18. kev, i think we are planning to go camping this weekend if the weather looks good and just had a nice sesh in abit of a weather front rain kicked in 4m blade was just plucking me up, so i decided to pendulemed away double redirect still not landed def my highest jump then crash! haha
  19. i think my mate, isnt going to buy any of your kites rich he has just ordered a new 5m blurr, but im thinking of maybe taking one off yor hands
  20. ill pass cheers will, and rich im slowly pursading him but im going away for 4 days now so will probably let you know when im back if he is interested if not ill see about maybe taking one off your hands
  21. whats you quiver rich? or what you looking to sell is more the question?
  22. ill have to get your number again rich, and yeah i was overpowered to hell on the 7's holding on the 6.5m just locked in i was o the flexi buggy and crapping myself!! haha many a times that day it just plucked me outa the buggy as if i was a feather. kinda dissapointed i wasnt strapped in but at the same time not haha
  23. ive been flying down the 7's latly met a few new people and your old friend who you use to fly with rich. slowly getting my friend into the whole kiting business and made it to 27mph down the 7's i the buggy its been good im enjoying getting back into it
