Mez Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 I hope some of you newbies that have signed up will continue to contribute to the forum and are not just here to win a kite Have a look around, read some posts and ask some questions. I hope so too Mark, there are a lot of new members coming out from the shadows. And a lot from over seas, I wonder how they all became aware of the competition? Welcome and stay please! We're all a happy bunch. Let us know how you came across the Extreme Kites Comp. And thank you to Born Kite (www.born-kite.de) for supplying Extreme Kites with this great prize. Quote
Mez Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 Website upgrade, nice! I should pull my buggy out again, it has been to long. Bones - come over to the Kingston Meet in January 2016. A nice place to get your game on again! gum-nuts 1 Quote
gum-nuts Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 Bones - come over to the Kingston Meet in January 2016. A nice place to get your game on again! I'm still working on the family to come at least we now have the wheels and a road trip across the Nullabor is now on the agenda... Hiflyer 1 Quote
Mez Posted June 13, 2015 Report Posted June 13, 2015 Very nice Bones. Would love a camper trailer to take on our kiting trips. Quote

And thank you to Born Kite (www.born-kite.de) for supplying Extreme Kites with this great prize. Quite a lot of 'new' members for XK are actually long term posters from other sites, I have shamelessly plugged the comp on my youtube channel, PKF (where I've also been a member for several years) and Kitecrowd. And I agree with your sentiments entirely - stick around, ask questions, share what you know, have fun and join in! Hiflyer 1 Quote
Shane.robbo Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 Hi John Helen and I were looking to buy a nasa or 2 , but our kiting came to a halt in january, Helen got of the dirt bike the wrong way (our other extreme activity) which put an end to kiting for a while. ...broken collarbone and ribs! Helen tried your nasa at kingston 2014 and liked it. cheers hope to see you all again somewhere sometime Robbo and Helen Quote

bobalooie57 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) What's the fastest anyone has been on a NASA? I've done 66kph in an ice buggy, Joe Steffert did 71kph last week, down the road passing trucks. I've been able to hit 49 kph with a 3.4M NPW9 by HQ on the shore of Lake Ontario in wind gusting up from 25mph. Edited June 15, 2015 by bobalooie57 deleted outlaw's picture, didn't know how before.

3shot Posted June 15, 2015 Report Posted June 15, 2015 Hello everyone. Count me in. I'm Jason from the USA. I hang out on PKF mostly. John's wealth of NASA Star knowledge, led me to get my own quiver of NASA Star 2s. They are amazing kites! I'd love to win this NS3. Quote
soliver Posted June 15, 2015 Report Posted June 15, 2015 I was wondering when you were gonna get here Jason... Too bad we couldn't do a side by side comparison at JIBE Quote
