  1. Hi guys. Always keen for a meet and fly. Keeping an ear to the thread to see what dates are being put around for this meet. I know Rob Lukin has finally got his new car organised and is waiting on hand controls to be fitted for him. Needs to do a shakedown trip anyway. He also has to go to Melbourne soon and would probably be keen on a buggy if there was a meet happening.

  3. Giving the Chrono 11m a fly in 3-5knots 5DB4CCBE-DAC4-44AE-9C62-A94816A14EBD.MOV
  4. Sorry to hear Joel and family. Cancer is a vicious demon that spares very few. My journey is only just starting.
  5. Side view just for you Doug..bit of reflection just to confuse you too ?
  6. Wonder why my left leg was a bit wobbly when I landed a bit hard last year. Think all that was holding it to my body was a bit of muscle and skin, as left hip still attached to leg instead of pelvis.
  7. Totally strung out waiting for a ride. Bloody wind been missing, barely 10 knots most days. Making me heaps jealous seeing others getting a ride. Especially our friends overseas. Apart from that all ok, some days a bit slower than others ?. Hope everyone else going good ??
  8. Just a little taste of todays action with Rob Lukin via some drone footage captured by a friend... Absolute awesome day and some great footage to go through (4 GoPro Camera's and the drone...... going to be a long night)
  9. Rob and I got a quick buggy in at Fisheries Bay the other day... Not the best of winds but a rides a ride .. Post a video up soon
  10. Rob and I finally got a ride in on Monday. Good wind around 20kn SE. Totally hot as soon as you hit the track and equal both ways. Had a great ride for a couple of hours, was low tide but wind pushed a fair bit of water onto the track.... Made for some interesting moments aquaplaning at 60km/h plus.. Still managed to crack a 70km/h tho..... woo hoo. Rob was on his 7m Ikon Blind and I grabbed his 5m Blind as the 6m Slingshot kept deflating, need to replace the inflate valve. Been no wind since so bloody happy we got that ride in... awesome day.
  11. Cheers Joel... only thing I can afford for the buggy at the moment is a wash..... kids and school do that ? would love to try one of the new Slingshot Phantom kites though. Might be just what we need for those low wind days ?
  12. Thanks guys... been no good wind lately ?. hope to get a ride in next couple of days ?
  13. We’ll try and get a ride in for you ?. No charge this time for the airtime wear on kite and tyres ?
  14. Was a great day. Andy had the Kahoona 7.5 Rob was on a Ikon 7 and I was running an old Slingshot 6m in 20-25kn. The Slingshot wasn’t set up properly and I couldn’t power up properly, it has wrong bridles on front and different back lines, could only use last 2 inches fully barred on for ANY power or kite stalled......end of day we took bout 6 inches off back lines and it flew way better... looking forward to another 20knot day now ??
  15. Bit of raw footage from the other day..... quik edit.
  16. Needs to power the kite up more to beat Rob. Reckons he’s always barred on, but the kites on the ‘SOFTEST’ setting... Bloody toughen up princess and ride it HARD ?????
  17. Last day of a 3 day buggy spree... these photos are from Fisheries Bay today. Will post some video of it all when I get time to sort through all the footage. Thursday and Friday were at our local Louth Bay... Rob cracked a 73 km/h on Thursday, personal best at this beach (that he knows of).. https://www.icloud.com/sharedalbum/#B0HGY8gBYGS1Xsa
  18. Great video... love the acceleration ???. see you’re on beachracers as well. What kite are you running? we are hanging to crack the 100km/hr but can’t get anywhere near that, seem to hit the 70km/hr then it seems a lot of the power is pulling buggy sideways and thus losing speed.. what’s the go?... just need to grow bigger balls???? Really don’t need another flight of bewilderment and pain to find out ??
  19. Awesome photo guys...... sooooooo jealous ??
