I thought all internet forum posts were pure fact.... dont tell me santa isn't real either

purchased a new 14m 07 torch in late 06 learnt on it (yes with lessons), has never let me down to this day survived all the smashing and crashing with learning and also survived 30 minutes wrapped around an oyster infected pilon of a bridge in a heavy tidal flow, without damage or need for repair, not pimping just stating facts. Octopus system is great and has never stuffed up. Re-launch never caused me a problem. very well constructed and grunty kite.
