And finally I had to join up and have my 2 cents worth.
I agree with those who say Tony was not bashing Cabrinha, if there was any doubt his statements that he wasn't were clear.
I also agree that kitepowers replies, both here and whenever he replies on Kiteforum, are just simple attacks on people that have no substance.
He certainly has a beef with anyone who has an alternative view and lurches into character assasination.
Anyway I hope it continues. As it has been entertaining at the least, and I think Tony's replies must be going straight over kitepowers head, otherwise why would he continue to make a fool of himself.
So that was my first go at this forum, and it was fun.

G'day Freed
Have a look at what user posted above, be honest mate, how could anyone possibly beleive that was not directed at the Crossbow in a negative way??
Just look at the thread title and a few of the other replies from Tony??
As for some of the other retorts and claims, well as I pointed out Tonys fav kite came with pulleys, and there are not 4 brands of bow kites on the market here yet, etc?????
As for kiteforum, which is really kitebrandpimpingforum, and fokitenravingcrapforum, the only people I have poked and prodded are those that talk sh1t, or who push ridiculous, unrealistic, unsafe information, like fokkerfool does. Over 99% of what I say to fokiten is designed to bait him up and let everyone see how useless his posts are and that his posts are designed to get attention for him in a very negative, childish way. His stupid rhetoric drowns out the good messages of many regular posters simply because they disagree with his extremely narrow and totally dangerous and impractical views on teaching, lofting etc.
Everyone else I help where I can.
You are totally free to think what you like though.
And Galah, no-one at Kitepower is stopping Tony from competing with us, I have no idea what you are talking about.
I was referring to the empty threat and claim that Tony made above that it is easy to beat Kitepower on service or price, especially when Tony does not have 3 retail shops all open 7 days a week and a website that offers online live help now too, as well as staff who have more combined experience in kiting than any other retailers in Oz, we just love what we do, and we love to do it well.
Tony only said that to imply or infer that Kitepower provides bad service and prices, once again using smear tactics, as he has done thoughout this thread.
Like I said, good luck to Tony, but he will need plenty of luck if he acts like the claims he has made on this forum.
I beleive this is one of the fiendliest, cleanest forums on kitesurfing and windsurfing out there, brand bashing is not needed or wanted here, and I intend to defend brands that get bashed, whether I sell that brand or not, I just like to keep it real.
Cya and
