Re: What is the best revenge??? Help!

You could get rid of the inflatable and get a foil. Never have to worry about a bladder problem again.

Re: Closed Foil Questions

you guys are kidding right? How many months of water kiting do we have in mn vs anowkiting? A closed cell foil holds it's internal pressure better then an open foil in gusts. It takes snow and ice beatings better than an lei. We live in mn the land of ice and snow. Not Hawaii. Buy a closed foil and ...

For those of you thinking about staying in Duluth there is a great campground near WI point. Camping at WI point is technically not allowed, but for 17 bucks you can camp at a place with showers, a hot tub, and pool, and even a little bar. It's located just off of Hwy 13 in WI probably about 3 miles...

I find it interesting that all of the LEI kite companies are starting to make inflatables that are the shape of foils with bridles. I always thought one of the reasons people flew inflatables instead of a close cell foil was because there was no bridle to deal with. huh quess that won't hold true so...

His number is 320.684.2080. He lives in Aitkin close to Malmo park so it should't be hard to get it. He is a rea...

Found - Divers Watch @ Mille Lacs

Did anyone lose a divers watch at Mille Lacs about two weeks ago? A local man found the watch while walking his dog. He wants to make sure that it gets back to it's rightful owner so he gave me his business card. Please respond to this post or call me to get his number. Thank you Emily 218.391.0797

The wind was too much for me but I got my new LFT in the mail today and Aaron and I are heading back to Mille Lacs again t...

I think that all of this is rediculous and that all parties in this are acting 13 year old boys. I though real men came hear to chat about Kiting not run a popularity contest.

Hey guys- A word of advice from a six year Duluth resident! DO NOT GO IN LAKE SUPERIOR WHEN THERE IS ICE!! Seriously, Chip was right, you will die. The spring is the coldest time to be in the lake, I race sailboats up there and there is no way I am in there before the middle of May anf that is just ...

I will be there at 2:oo if everything works out. I am looking forward to riding again. I just get up the nerve to get skis on and go. It will be fun to see other women learning. We need more girls out there!!
