rasga Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 ah yes.....but it puts you on the path to beer and student (kite) loan nirvana - University. You'll never be so happy and so poor at the same time. Sounds right to me folks! As to friends who dont kite. . .its possible, and theres more to life than jump heights and bloddy speeds! Quote
spike_101 Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 Dont have a board yet but i have an ekko 2.8. One of the best kites i've ever flown. BTW they are highly under rated. Quote
misterlizard Posted April 22, 2004 Report Posted April 22, 2004 Dont worry, when you get a job you'll miss all the holidays. Yeah man, unless you get a job as a schoolteacher like me, and then you get all the holidays! :D (Bl**dy hard work though! ) Quote
