Just noticed that kitepower is having a dressup compition for ther australia day demo; and its got me thinking.


What's the funniest thing you have seen someone kiting in, or on!

I've seen a Monkey suit, Kiting on Macca's Trays etc, but no-one in a mankini as of yet...

Post some pics of costumed kiting!!!!

Some vintage Zero Prestige!


Long live Zero Prestige! You can still find the info on bars and boards at www.mit.edu/people/robot/ and the kites at http://www.instructables.com/group/zeroprestige/

Did anyone ever get into making their own gear?

Yeah, I make gear.
I customize a lot of stuff.

Stamp,
Go to page 1 of the current thread called 'Launch technique' to view a pic of LaunchPad (patent pending).......
the coolest self-launch system on the blue planet.

Death leashes??? I'm just after a strong scuicide leash for unhooking. My crappy cabrinha ones undo sometimes while riding after crashes (the red release handle part is flawed IMHO). Havn't lost the kite yet but it's only a matter of time. Was hoping someone could make me a nice strong one with a good release mechanism like the one in the photo.

does that release bind under load?
You can tie another knot in the cabby leashes to tighten them up.
However I do find the red release makes mincemeat of my lat area when I drop the bar a lot.
