ok - one other person is replying... winter leader lines = key...

well, nobody is replying, so i decided to throw in my two (or three...) cents. understand, ive only gotten my t3s (9m, 14m) up a couple times but ive noticed the same things you report and i think ive figured them out... at least, theyve been solved by things ive done... i dont claim to be an expert...

i found a soft spot today with one of my ski boots in front of my aunts house. she lives ~6 doors south of mahto beach. it seemed like it was an open seem from a craze/heave near shore in probably just a few feet of water, that had drifted in with snow. with what the dnr reports, we might just have ...

you guys pretty much hit the nail on the head as far as what i was getting at. thanks a bunch for the feedback! and yeah, id say 600# is the way to go... IM HUGE!

just a quick question for those in the know.... does q-powerline really function well without sleeving, as advertised? im sure it would work, but it seems like switching lines or removing lines could be an epic pain with such a small diameter knot even if one uses a reef or larks head... thoughts/ex...

welcome to the neighborhood. stop on by if youre in the mahto beach area and see the upstairs lights on.

slingshot has kite backpacks for 25 bucks on their site if you wanna look legit

ps - thanks to whoever dropped the dr pepper on the *ice-road* out onto the lake, it was a pleasant (and much needed) surprise.

agreed. i took the opportunity to go out and try out a new rig on an old kite (failure) and meet some people (success). everyone was in good spirits, and the guy from the pioneer press seemed to have a good time watching everyone out there. if this is how you guys get together when events are cancel...

i know this isnt a sailing board, but after reading this post a couple times i am 99% sure that may 17th was the day i put my mc scow in last year. i was rigging up at ramsey with my boat in the shallows when the wind started to pick up. i looked out across the lake and saw a few other craft out the...

its black with slingshot on it in gray. i agree that a bigger bar for a bigger kite would be good but i think for the sake of making it work, but i can afford to be patient and wait for a decent deal to pop up... (anybody have ~23 inch a 5 line bar theyre lookin to offload...?) as you mention, peopl...

thanks a bunch for the speedy feedback guys. youve definitely raised some questions that i havnt even thought of just because of the limited amount of equipment ive had experience with. for the record, my diesel has what appears to be a 17" (measured between the rubber ends). i was wondering if...

hi guys - ive been kiting for a few years now on a patched together quiver and am looking to streamline things a bit. i found a nice deal for a handful of fuels ('06-'07) and a machine. anyway, for slingshots, i already have a diesel 13m with the stock bar and was wondering if i could get away with ...
