nolan Posted March 10, 2007 Report Posted March 10, 2007 grrrrr... Having a carpet fitted on the stairs and landing. No fly for me. D1ckhead That's a double D'oh! No beach, and a big load of cash on a poxy carpet that'll never fly no matter how much you tweak it.
Match Posted March 10, 2007 Report Posted March 10, 2007 It's a good deep shag though, or at least worth a few for paying for it
nolan Posted March 10, 2007 Report Posted March 10, 2007 Fair enough. So, both you and the carpet will be getting laid.
PaulLaurie Posted March 10, 2007 Report Posted March 10, 2007 ... and on that bombshell .... off to BRS.

Bobby Posted March 10, 2007 Report Posted March 10, 2007 Big winds gave loads of laffs today . Gave chase to a few runaways and saw a cracker -some big guy givin' a big bow a real real good Ozzie tackle. Spot on dude . Piccies of cool hand Jake, Grabber Carl, and John boy showin' that 11m G. whos really in control (notice the smile though ) - you did well today John considering those big winds, soon be 'avin you screamin' down the beach, running powerslides round the rest of us . http://www.bobmcgee.com/images/kites/jake4.jpg http://www.bobmcgee.com/images/kites/carlgrab.jpg http://www.bobmcgee.com/images/kites/john.jpg

JohnDave Posted March 10, 2007 Report Posted March 10, 2007 Water, Landboard, Buggy, Landboard. Another BRS corker :D
big-jon Posted March 10, 2007 Report Posted March 10, 2007 Shame the wind was off angle but a cool day - big thanks to Carl for showing me how to set up my G2, and thanks to Bobby for the words of encouragement. When I get a wind that does not scare me so much maybe I will do a bit better?? It is a big shock to go from a 3.5 foil that is dragging my buggy side ways to then fly an 11m that is trying to lift me off the ground!!!
carltb Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 stick with it jon. pretty soon you'll be popping airs like the rest of us!!!

Off the ground and almost over the car park, was a close one when you first launched it Jon, glad all was ok though.
nolan Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 Another BRS corker :D Yes indeed, apart from the fact that I've got one knee that's 3 times the size of the other http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k144/nolan69/P1020446.jpg http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k144/nolan69/P1020466.jpg http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k144/nolan69/P1020471.jpg http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k144/nolan69/P1020483.jpg http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k144/nolan69/P1020492.jpg

popeyethewelder Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 YESTERDAY..........http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjJbxiBbJQs Nice vid Carl, see you caught me a few times lol
PaulLaurie Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 Another BRS corker :D Yes indeed, apart from the fact that I've got one knee that's 3 times the size of the other Yeah had a great time too, good to get back there. I'll look after your kites while your knee mends
Bobby Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 YESTERDAY..........http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjJbxiBbJQs Great vid Carl dude. Best bits are that guy taking it easy peasy real nervous then coming off and getting dragged, and I think it was you getting hauled across the front of the camera - wipeouts are just the best - make me giggle loads - maybe not nice but sooo funny . Oh yeh and another best bit - any pics of that cool 10m Venom . Gold star mate for taking the time and trouble to put that wee movie together. Roll on those warm 'n windy Summer workdays, on the beach for 5 and kiting till late .
carltb Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 yeah i think the kid was from derby and it was his first time on the board. he was a hell of alot better then me on my first outings. respect to the little dude.
Bobby Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 Just seen the vid of Friday - - another cool effort - well done dude. Those water boys in the second half make rotations look soo simple - just had the daughter laffing at me as I carbon copied it - giggle as much as they want, don't care cos my pirouette is gonna be perfect. Josh's wipeouts were a giggle . And a second half cheesey toon too, nice one, keep it up .
carltb Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 starfish wipeout. i was giggling my ass off when i was filming in.
brassneck Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 picked up the booby prize today down on the sands.... couldnt make saturday so had to go for my fix today.. crappy winds , offshore, 10 - 30mph... still some fun to be had when it went nuclear on the 8m vortex... died off later to nowt, but still a fun day..... question though....... a handfull of static people down , all kinds of things, being launched in all sorts of winds. Question.... do static people have to wear kite killers? saw many face plants , drags etc ...wrong kites being put up for the conditions. To be honest, apart from the usual brusing and look of horror all the thrills and spills were kept under control (just)... but you really did get the feeling that they were just hanging on because they had to. I know that some of the expereinced guys dont like using em, and its hard to say who should and who shouldnt. god knows , I aint the best kiter in the world:o so IMHO the more safety / less accidents for you and for other people on the beach the better, especially when you are new at it. Dont think its a big deal when static flying to stick some kite killers on, especially when its blowing up a big one. Anyway.. it was just a question / thought... especially with rangers being so keen at the moment. ps.nice vid from sat carl... looked luurvley conditions.
JohnDave Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 Another BRS corker :D Yes indeed, apart from the fact that I've got one knee that's 3 times the size of the other Heal soon fella. I left an unmarked packet in your van on Saturday, you can keep it though so enjoy.
