My green Suzuki Vitara was stolen last night with my gear in it . (Yes I know why did I leave my gear in it particularly when I have had my cars stolen 3 times and broken into twice .i did bring my board in though and then was asked to intervene in a teenager daughter fight and didn't bring the rest in)
One 13.5 griffin argo black canopy red LE and a 9.5 grifin argo black canopy and white LE .Its windy today and the boneheads might be out there in my car somewhere trying out the kites .keep your eyes peeled folks .

Gee have some bad luck lach!!!! It just so happens I have one for sale!!! No kite gear but ..... It sold pretty quick to some slingshot team riders!!! ;-) ps; did you leave da keys in it again?? Now on a serious note. Will keep an eye out. Daz

Sorry to hear that Lach, I'll keep an eye out for the kites and the car.

I saw the car at Dicko the other day, what's the rego?

Best of luck mate.

The cops reckon that stolen syuff from Newcastle goes down to sydney pawn brokers and wreckers and vice verse

I will keep an eye out on the NB 2nd hand shops, also check ebay.

At long reef over Christmas a few years back, the thieves would have a spotter and some one to break into the cars at long reef car park.

They would do a line of about 5 cars at once and be gone in less than a minute. I had some kites, jeans and credit card stolen and they went on a $3000 shopping spree and cleaned out the cars on both sides.

They stole about 8 kites and a bunch of other stuff, not bad for a minutes work...

I reported it to the police in Dee Why, the reply was, don't leave anything in the car, because the car park gets robbed all the time fool.

Its some times safer to leave your kite on the beach.

Check your car insurance, a mates car was robbed, but his insurance covered everything in his car that was stolen. I don't know the details, or if its extra cover, but may be worth having.

Car found in Windale . kites bar and lines and wettie gone .Bags left behind .These guys look like they were joy riders .Lots of rubber gone from the back tires ,dirt everywhere and they have smashed into something metallic that has pushed the bull bar back gone up over the bull bar and smashed into the windscreen halfway and smashed the front pillars .other than that car looks fine .car still goes and started no probs with ahalf a tank of petrol in it. I 'd say they plan to use the kites SO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR PROBABLE KOOKS IN A PARK AROUND WINDALE OR REDHEAD ON THE NEXT WINDY DAY .hopefully it'll be really blowin and they get a thorough workover .There was a 13.5 which should do the trick.
I re ckon we might catch up with these pricks .The driver is a smallish person judging by the seat and mirror adjustment they had made .

Ill keep an eye out for ya lachlan. Be quite silly to steal kites and try to fly em at the local
Kite community is to tight. Hope you get your gear back Dude.

thanks Mitch .its pretty silly to steal a car too .I reckon we'll catch these ****ers (theives are pretty dumb .I already know the person is short who drove it .they will be flying them somewhere in the area soon .if they were serious crooks the car would be in bits and sld off by now .i don't reckon these kites are destined for ebay or cash convertors .if you see em don't approach them or say anything .Get a good description and follow them home .you can call me on 0413387991.or SNR Constable Pike at Charlestown police on 49429803

I and the cops caught thieves who got their relos to call for parts ts for motorised scootes and bikes that were pinched years ago (2 separate incidents same result ) and a ****head who stuck his arm through my shop window after smashing it and cut himself and gave enough for a dna match .

HELP GET THE WORD AND KITE DESCZRIPTION OUT THERE .ONE has a GRIFFIN (black canopy) the other has argo and is black canopy white LE and red TE .

Have a look at ur House insurance as well. U might be able to claim ur kites on your house insurance if your car insurance doesnt cover it. I know my policy covers me if they are stolen, even if they are in my car down the beach. Its worth a look anyway.

thanks they're not.I'm gonna look elsewhere or see if they have something that will cover it

Your zuk must be like the tonka truck I had about 40 years ago, couldn't kill that 1 either
But mine was a big yellow dump truck
