Folks,

I used to get a real high from kiting on the river after work.... this season I bought the SLE kites and dumped (cheap) the c kites... now I still get that buz from riding in surf and boosting high in the ocean... but riding on the river seams dull.. like yesterday I thought something must be wrong with me... just not fun anymore - I think its cos you dont get scared ****less from being overpowered and nows its like going sailing with the granny...

furthermore - not helping matters my kite set up was wrong yesterday.. not majorly - just incorrect knot settings on line - which I thought could be affected by moving the adjuster while riding (front lines) - didnt seem to be right no matter what I did...

i can easily explain it dan... your not trying anything and you have your sister to be a wet blanket
if you want i can boost in front of you like a crazy Italian... that will put the scare factor back in it

Hawaii,

looks like you get thrilled by the danger while kiting. Why don't you take your SLE and do a base jump. It will be the thrill of your life.

Alternatively you could go out in 50knot winds (in the river) and you'll be having that rush that your missing....

I'll be following the news to hear how they peel you off some concrete wall or the tarmac
