I've not used my buggy with the wide axle much yet but when i get to grips with it i'll let you know Its in the shed now on the buggy and ready to go just need some good wind and i'm off

my power max (or bits of) has now arrived

got it a few days ago but not had chance to post my opinions

 

all constructed and painted and it looks bloody marvelous!

 

my paint job is a bit iffy but since i saved myself a few quid i dont really care that much.

 

not had chance to ride it yet but overall the build looks good and it all fits together ok. will post agian after i get to `punish` it. let you all know how it stands up to a bit of abuse.

 

very good fit too.

 

i cannnot come out unless i slide forwards. all good for racing

i think that buggies are like kites, it is what you have a personal preference for and what you are used to. I have never had any problems in my flexi and i really like it, i have tried other buggies but i am glad to get back into mine. It is what i am used to. The wide axle certainly makes a difference. I have tried it back with the small axle again and it was really hard to control when i i was powered up. No matter what you say, at the end of the day everyone has their opinions and favourites and what i really like about this forum and meeting other kiters is that we can all discuss our favourites and opinions and have a good time doing it. We all love to talk about kites. Non kiters dont really understand this. It is our obsession. discussing our ideas and opinions on here really does help people to make up their minds on what they want and also gives them good advice.

i was waiting a bit to post this cos i thought that i might actually get chance to use the bloody thing but work/family comitments and the god damn evil weather mean that i still cant really give any opinion on how the bugger rides!

i drove 200 miles trying to find enough wind and not to much rain. complete waste of time. should have stayed at home. 8.5 c-quad just got me moving (2mph) :(

and b`cos it was drizzling all day my kite got covered in sand and trying to wash it off when i got home got it covered in mud.

wrestled the kite into my cellar where it is still and i have no idea how i will get it back in the bag (small house and big kite is bad mix)
