No..I buggied round murriee with my invisible freinds.

As for the setups, I think theres 3 or so good setups, For non depowers, that is. 1. Power on the outside of the bar, brakes on a pully (linked togeather) and in the center . This stops one of the back edges of the kite stalling when turning. Then a fixed chicken loop to your harness. Kite killers are joined to a shackle or ring near the brake pully. 2. Too hard to explain, uses 3 pullys. Looks like it would work well. On PKD website.http://www.paracontrol.de/english/index2.php

Dunno about kitesurfing, But i wanna try buggying in the carlo sandblow! Its like a giant half pipe!

Thats pretty awsome..But that dude in the first shots screwed..

No takers? I'll just go and sit in the corner with my lonelyness..

Yeah, you can use either. There are special foil bars that tweak with the brakes as you fly, giveing tighter turning and what not. Not really needed. A normal bar, with the brakes on a pully running off the chicken loop is good, and I use that if im useing a bar. Helps with turning a bit, stops the back edge of the kite stalling when turning.

I can speak for the 4m buster 1's. Their awsome. I don't know how useful a 4m depowerable would be, you would need pretty high wind for it. ( high wind+ snow= verrrry cold) The buster isn't as lifty as say..a blade, which is good for buggying, so you don't get pulled out. But thats bad for landboards, and snowboards (or so i assume). Thats not to say you can't use a buster for boards, it's just a bit harder. Anyway. Buster. Great build, nice bridles, decent bag, good handles, good lines.

I did contemplate going for a two wheel reccord. I have also considered buying a libre. Expensive though. You never see seccond hand ones. Must be that good.

Depowers are useful in any situation..With the harness, buy a bigger one, that fits over the jacket..Watch the updrafts on the mountians..
