jeez chopper, you make death leash sound like a nice gentle ride. Think of why death leash or suicide leash got its name from. I rode deathy for a long time and i know what is a lot better and which one hurts more. Not to mentio 5th line saves a lot of high impact wear and tear on your kite.

I didn't mean to slag the 5th line suicide... Ive got one, but prefer the suicide at the moment.... theres definately times though when i would never try 5th line, ie if im doing BIG pullup handlepasses as i don't want to fall outa the sky....

it definately does wear on your kite abit more, crashing with the suicide powered... unless you have a xbow which seem to depower so much that they don't hit with much force

yeah i got a big red back from falling from missing a pull up yesterday. But pull ups are the only ones that hurt ya, pop tricks do not.

good winds.

Finally.i hardly think this site is a place to bring up business matters between kite retailers(although im sure many find it commical).and i love the way he suks up to other perth retailers to try and get at hunglong



Amen to that Karl.

right on karl - the signal to noise ratio is this forum is pretty damned low. Then again, that's the internet for you...
