Life expectancy of a LEI & a foil?
BobTheRussianGarbageMan replied to islandboy's topic in Kite Surfing
you know a lot of stuff works out cheaper even WITH shipping when ordered from the states. I dont know why people dont do it more often. Try Clean Line Surf I got my harness there £10 cheaper than here -
I run mine at high pressure- not sure how much exactly then run my front wheel at low pressure which helps when turning so the front wheel isnt 'washed out' as much. I can hold huge amounts of power with my knobblies on grass- which means lots more speed:D . I have yet to try them on sand but have heard they perform well. My local tyre shop were right twats they wouldnt touch it. They said if anyone can fit those on there then they are geniuses. They were just too lazy. It ended up being a battle between me and the tyres on the living room floor. But I managed and next time I go out I will stop by and say 'Look you half arsed lazy tyre changing c*nts- I'm a ****ing genius!'

I had a few stellas before I fitted my rear tyres I tried using a chisel to get them on and off at first then I realised why I kept getting punctures... I went out today with them for the first time and realised I would need more space than a couple of football pitches if I didnt want to kill myself. I was overpowered for a start but I couldnt scrub off speed because I had too much grip! I nearly had 2 or 3 OOBs today- but it was amazing all the same. I'll get used to it- well worth the money for the extra speed!

An Ozone frenzy will give lots of lift and traction. Its stable and recommended for use on snow though ive never tried it- and its not a buggy engine either. I love these kites- I often use my mates 7.3 inland and its great! Sounds like it fits the bill anyway...

I prefer frenzys for jumping anyday...... -
Jesus that sounds nasty- we threw someone off a hill once and they landed dead flat on their tailbone it didnt look pretty!
-
Yeah i want a 6.3 but cant afford a new one........
-
LMFAO!
-
Chisles are the best for putting new tyres on with inner tubes- they make a great lever- to try it is to love it.............

I was going to get a wahine then I noticed it was designed for women so I looked for a Dakine speed seat. They are definately a very good choice for buggying. The problem is they stopped importing them to the UK. I was determined to have one so ordered one from America at www.cleanlinesurf.com . It took 2 weeks for delivery but it was still cheaper than anywhere in the UK WITH POSTAGE! I got a reactor bar with mine which works nice with my PL strop. Worked out at just over £65 (harness and rector roller bar) with postage and they give you free stickers, magazines and 'candy'...I thought I got a good deal anyway.

Blade III 4.0m on its hols to Tenariffe
BobTheRussianGarbageMan replied to Owch's topic in General Kiting
I went to that place with the kitesurfers everywhere. Its called el medano. And you dont need license for the scooters i hired one and I was 15 when I went! Just be careful because theyre lethal drivers. Try and stay off the motorways because thayre crazy! Also I recommend going to the mountain/volcano/whatever it is. Have a good time... -
Have you ever noticed how when there isn't much wind and you start to pack away or have to go for some reason the wind will suddenly pick up just as your leaving/packing away. This really pisses me off sometimes. Have you experienced this phenomona?
-
I just managed to fit one of them with a tube. I found if I didnt use the chisel to lever them on I wouldnt get so many punctures Ordered two new inner tubes from Coastguard to do the other one (and a spare). These tyres have been hell for me. If your going to get some a)dont give up with them b)use tubes c)DO NOT use a chisel to lever them on- common sense really im the only dumbass who would do that Not sure how theyll perform yet but they look amazin...
-
Im waiting now! If they dont come by 12.30 today then they'll come tommorow hopefully :D

You know you can edit your posts. Its not hard. Just click on 'edit'.

Id rather have one of these compared to a parastorm buggy! Its a BEAST
-
Do you have a death wish?
-
He said I would need a 'tubeless valve' or something where can i get these from?
-
probably...he said that you need a swan neck as well as forks for the front cus it raises it so much with the kenda scorpions. I cant afford that at the mo so i just went for the 2 back ones. Should arrive on Thurs/Fri...
-
ordered them from kite n skate due to your recommendation
-
Im gonna buy some kenda scorpions from coastguard and leave my barrow on the front for now- it seems mutley did ok with that setup... Ill just have to slow down alot before turning so my front wheel doesnt slide out.
-
yeah hopefully gonna be a long drive though. Would the front turf tyre from coastguard buggy accessories fit on my standard vmax forks?
-
cheers I'll definately get some rear tyres not sure about what would be best for the front without upgrading my forks...
-
If you look on buggy accessories at coastguard they offer two different tyres: the 'ATV' ones and the 'turf tyres'. Which is better for use on grass and sand?
-
Which tyres will be better for going fast on grass and sand- the ATVs or the 'turf tyres? Both from Coastguard. Also would I need to change my front fork?
