Idiots at Trigg on Saturday with a blue and white kite that was too big for the wind.

Kite at 12, mate hanging on, which did not prevent being dragged up the dunes, finally quick releasing when about to get dragged into path fence. Kite then looked like ended up on dual use path/carpark.

YOU D1CKHEADS!!!!

Hope someone told / advised them at the time. If they are that dumb they are probably noobs and will not see your post.

It would be good if everyone read these Forums !

Then you would not have to tell them they are idiots to their face !

Don't worry, those that know me would know I would have no hesitation in letting them know to their face[}:)]

Or maybe even a hand? Perhaps if people were as quick to offer assistance as they are to give someone ****, things like this would happen less?

You may be right, but you know, you may get one of those "I know everithing" why are you trying to teach me, then get spaltted.
Sometimes, I think, the natural selection law is good [}:)], as long as it will not get us banned , and this is another issue to consider.

So the guys overpowered, being dragged towards hard objects, probably fearing for his life, pulled the quick release, kites probably ripped and tangled.
I think he would realise by now that the kite was too big for the wind (Without a serve).

I have never yet been told to fk off when I've offered to give someone a hand. Even the ones who didn't think they needed it weren't aggressive about it....they just politely declined and proceeded to waste their afternoon fumbling around trying to figure it out for themselves.

From what I've seen, it's not the noobs who'll get us banned anyway. It's the experienced riders who just don't give a toss, pulling low percentage moves in close to the beach/beachgoers/whatever and getting it wrong. Sure, the noobs get it wrong too, but it's the guys who should know better that really get up *my* nose.
