popeyethewelder Posted August 28, 2009 Author Report Posted August 28, 2009 yea well be camping more than likly carlos so if u can sort it for us kell will call u tom theyll be 3 adults 3 teens 1 child Ok I have left a message to Shane via Skype...I am planning on leaving here around 6am, to get there for 9.15....I may stay the night I may come back home again later on...not sure yet, I will be leaving sunday morning to come home if I do stop... wind, on shore not that is make any difference there up to 22mph but it will be more there it always is...sunday is much calmer as the wind turns north Great for boarding or buggying...about 4-6 square miles of rock hard sand....may well be wet in the morning....when it rains it sits on top...the sand is that hard....you will love it Quote
AJH1973 Posted August 29, 2009 Report Posted August 29, 2009 hi all, does anyone know of any playing fields etc in or near to woodhall spa? might not get to get over to the coast but fancy a quick blast with the landboard. in terms of the coast is anderby creek still ok for traction kiting? cheers alex Quote
popeyethewelder Posted August 31, 2009 Author Report Posted August 31, 2009 Sorry Alex...I dont know Woodhall that well? Great to see Chris Kelly, Fitz and the gang at BLS.....there were some concerns from the others that no helmets were being using on the windy Saturday, but I hope you guys enjoyed it there. There were 9 pbs broken that day in the buggy....I didn't take many pics but the ones I did and the pbs are here http://pic7.piczo.com/Popeyethewelder?g=50871827 Quote

In the winter - gloves and wet weather gear. Finally food and drink. Quote
Atavar Posted September 6, 2009 Report Posted September 6, 2009 a bit off topic from meets but anyway when you lot are preparing to go kiting (buggying) is therre any equipment you think 'i must take this'? e.g. as a landboarder i take my kite, board, wheel pump, stakes etc Thanks Nothing i didn't take boarding. GPS always went boarding but is so much more useful on the buggy as it doesn't have to stay in your pocket, it can be attatched to the bug... The only thing i take that i never took boarding when buggying is the buggy itself. Quote
