Oi Youngie - How long ago was this taken?


Found at:

If you still have that bar I might be interested in buying it for my 16m Raven...

Know your roots people!

I might be interested in buying it to replace a broomstick I broke the other day.

Would have been around 1998-99.

The bar is an original Kiteski reel bar I got from Cory Roeseler in 1997 before Wipika was on the market. I lost it, along with alot of other gear, when our UN house was trashed and burned down in Dili after the elections in 1999.

I sold my other Kiteski rigs years ago to a Japanese enthusist.

The kite is a two-line 6.5m Fone that I bought off Raphael Salles when we were the first to kite Margaret River in late 1998.

The board is one of my custom WinDesigns 6'3" five fin weapons - have to laugh how the sport has come full circle back to directional boards again!

Yeah cheers Youngie!

Nice to know that while Robbie and the Frogs were just starting to make LEIs useful there were pioneers here in WA as well.
