  1. Hi all,I buggy at Gwithian with wingnut29 and can tell you there are no bans, at the moment:mad: but..... I have however this year seen some visitors kite in some stupid places, we have 3 miles of open beach here at low tide so there is no reason to launch, fly, board and buggy using the sunbathers and others using the beach as a slalom course as impressive as it looks it will get restrictions in place like Perranporth or even a ban as we are under Penwith Council who were twitchy after the Marazion kitesurfing incident last year. Please all help us out here, if you spot newcomers having problems or behaving dangerously give some advise, we are trying to:rolleyes: :rolleyes:
  2. meant to say can email you a pic if you like to see what I mean, unless someone can give a quick tutorial on how you put pics on here:o
  3. The back axle setup and size is exactly the same as my Flexifoil original buggy,which I also won on ebay last year the same as you frame only, the pl comp seat fits a dream and as was said loads of adjustable straps!!!!

    speedo

    I have to agree, just got my gps and works a treat its a garmin etrax and does not seem to eat batteries, also have the mapsource software so I can see my tracks on the beach when downloaded to my pc at home!!! it even showed where I wander around the rock to water the barnacles I think that is very accurate. :D By the way picked up cheap on ebay!
  12. I think you will find the Indesit is better at the skids.......no I mean the scuds maybe not.Enjoy your buggy....Merry Christmas, be safe everyone!!!!!! :D
  13. That'll be the new dishwasher then!!! :D
  14. If space is a prob get a bike rack (can be cheap) and the buggy you really want, also you do not have to keep assembling anything!!! works for me.

    Gps

    There are probably threads on gps but gps is too short to search! Any way using gps, Gwithian beach Cornwall a very modified original buggy, firebee 2m and a very scary wind last Sunday I got 40.4mph!!! oh and a change of undies. How accurate are they????
  16. I got some reinforced plastic tubing, keeps its shape, slipped over tubes drilled and pop rivet http://www.flexifoil.com/community/forums/attachment.php?s=&postid=224207
  17. I use Gwithian in Cornwall, about 3 miles tide out always been a goal on the right wind, 2 weeks ago with new tyres I did it! 6mile round trip, twice!, sorry but that was good for me, got home 2hrs later and the wife says "why are you grinning" that made my day!!!
  18. 18x8.5x8 on rear, 16x6.5x8 Kenda on front all on standard wheels!!! with wide fork, got them from ATS
  19. Cheapest place for ski goggles I found are charity shops, only quid or 2, and sometimesthey are top brands, you can pick up cheap ski suits too nice for the winter, the nice lady could'nt help with the marine grease though!!!!
  20. Just trying to get to speed on this design stuff, which is really interesting, but a thought, having a reversed buggy you know two wheels on the front one on back, is there any advantage to this?

    Cheap buggy bearings

    Follow this link and contact the user, I got a full set of bearings for £8.00 +p&p not bad! I think he still has some, also quick delivery. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3628622467&category=310&rd=1
  22. I have a seat from an original flexi buggy in good condition, it's not the webbing type, colour is yellow and black, don't know if it will fit ?????
  23. Yep I agree the bees can be a bitch, but understanding a kite and HAVING TO FLY IT! is all part of the sport. I've had my buggy and 4m bee up to 31mph, yes my bike speedo is calibrated to the wheel circumference, but when your @ss is 2 inches off the deck its quick.
