Thanks to everyone who filled out a survey.
Checked out that company Mr Plow. looks pretty good, i might use that later on, depending on cost.
I'm actually thinking of contacting one of the manufacturers with a bit of data in a bid to help them get their product onto the market. I'm thinking along the lines of whenever the wind is on, a seller from a specific company rocks up, throws a kite in the air, and gives people a go. Of course the necessary disclaimers will have to be filled out, and not everyone will be able to try. Mainly people who already have a kite there. I think this way people who may not have been pursueing buying this companies kite, may be interested. I think this is a more efficient way at selling kites rather than just sponsoring a guy to use their kites. I'm shocked at how many people have filled out my survey that are sponsored. I didn't know that many people were. (good on em though!) But when they're on the water, they just look like another kiter. If those guys put up a flag, and give people a go at the kites, i think sales will be hugely improved. Mind you i'm not looking at making the beach into a salesyard, but merely looking at letting people fly different kites to let them try something different.
As to the water time, it's been great! On Wed i think it was (when the easterly was blowin) i had the whole beach to myself for about 3 hours! Then someone finally showed up and i was pretty knackered so i kited for about another half and then packed up. Spewin i left so early as would've liked to seen the pros that showed up later on.
Hope the foot gets better and i hope the rest of us can avoid that kind of stuff. I'm always hobblin around the house after a kiting session, you don't notice the small ones until you get out.
cheers
James
