Re: Chicken loop for a trainer kite

Full power all the time! Don't go out in winds you aren't comfortable in, or else you could go for a nice ride.

Re: Kiteboard Fix Up

Thanks guys! I am keeping it, I was just curious if I lost a bunch of money or not. I did not have to do any fiber glass repair, I used a 150 Grit sand paper to sand the surface of the board, then I painted it with one coat of black, let it dry, sanded that coat of black, painted another coat of bla...

Re: NEED YOUR INPUT

I actually played at a local course here known as TDR paintball. We made it to psp one year which was a lot of fun. The other course we played at was MetroPaintball Games with DSSP8NTBALL, now pro team vicious.

Re: NEED YOUR INPUT

Don't worry not affiliated with anybody, nor do I want to compete with you guys. I used to be an avid paintballer and went to TONS of tournaments. At all these events there was a company called trademygun.com that basically bought your old gear, sold used gear, and allowed you to trade in towards di...

Re: NEED YOUR INPUT

I think that having a shop that did that would help curb people buying gear that is inappropriate for their skill level. Also this concept would say people are likely to sell their gear for cheaper because they want cash THEN and the gear would be sold for normal market value. Not HIGH priced. I fee...

NEED YOUR INPUT

Would you guys like a shop/website that specialized in buying and selling of used gear, or offered you trade in towards new gear. the shop would sell used and new gear not on consignment.

Meaning you do not have to search for a buyer of your gear, the shop can give you money or trade in instantly.

Re: What's a better kite?

Sadly I work weekends and nights so I can't make it to the event! I would love to though! I love the direct feel of my turbo 2, just havent really had favorable winds in my area to fly the waroo.... let alone my slingshot... Super gusty, shifty, inconsistent. I am also 1.5hours away from a large bod...

Re: What's a better kite?

Thanks for all the responses! I am just trying to expand my quiver and can't decide which kite line to go with! Right now T2 is seeming better for the gusty conditions of the lakes.

What's a better kite?

I have two kites at the moment and am currently wondering what the average consensus is on kites. I know it is about what each individual rider prefers, but I have not gotten to try out the other kite as of yet. Winds have not been favorable in northern Iowa... Soon come.... My question is which kit...
