Noob Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Replaced my leading edge valve yesterday. Was quite easy only being 3 inches from the zip. Lines are ordered, hoping they get here before I go away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMOA, that frenzy is a great kite, can i book it for next year when i go on a big blue holiday snowkiting, you can get huge jumps out of it. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev1n Posted May 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 hey rich, still going to barmouth on thurs? its looking great for borth on thurs, the flat water on the estuary entrance would be perfect for you to practice on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noob Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Yeh still going thursday Kev. By the time we get there and get set up it'll be well into the afternoon. Lines turned up today along with depower rope, all changed now. Had to shorten the center lines quite a bit, so go to try and get some sleeving tomorrow, hoping the marine shop in town will sell it. Then all being well I'll be good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Durden Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Good to see a few local kiters around. I've been out of the sport for a year or so now, but perhaps I'll see you down the road soon. Anyone doing Wallop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone doing Wallop? Hi Tyler. I met you up at sundorne a few years ago. Was just as I was looking at getting into kiting. There's a few people that fly there now. No Wallop for me, unless the missus gives me a wallop. brs all weekend i think, looks cracking Brs will be good for me, half the distance of Borth. If I leave it any longer I'll have forgot everything Chris taught me. If you give me a call Kev and I'll meet up with you there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
