FOLLOWER for the kiter who allways seems to be on your arse.

HOG for the kiter who runs back and forth in the best smooth water jump spots all day.

yes I am drinking but it is red wine Dolcetto and Syrrah by Brown Brothers.

Brad, Alby,

Guys why not go "bash" something else for a change... Your part of the group that keeps us at the top of the forums and then has the weak mindedness to complain about it !

Dont get me wrong I love it when were at the top of the forums, but jeeze thats blatent slagging... At least back it up with something of credability.

Brownee,

Fair call, you hit the nail on the head with that one about the naysayers keeping it in the news.

If you go back to the dim dark days when the first threads of Hype came out about the Hellfish you will see that I thought it was good to see some new inovation in kiting.

Coming from a sales background, my personal opinion on the whole best situation is that their marketing people leave a lot to be desired, all the prerelease hype and assorted crapola which was spouted over it has done a lot of damage to their own name as well as their agents around the world.

It would appear that they haven't learnt from their mistake as now they are pushing the nemisis as a reaction to the new style of kites being released onto the market. Yes they are some very nice 3D CAD drawings to give the illusion of a flying working kite.

I learnt rather early on in my sales career when the company I work for did some wonderfull prerelease marketing on some very good quality valves, we did exceptionally well, picked up an aboslute truckload of orders, unfortunately the manufacturer couldn't deliver, thus we couldn't, lost a lot of face with our customers and within 2 years the product range was a dead duck and we had some brassed of clientel.

I am still looking forward to hearing how the new material goes on a kite, I am still looking forward to seeing how the hell fish goes. The inovation still looks good.

Give the people a quality product not woefull marketing from the good old USA.


Be cool, if your ever down in Mandurah give us a yell.

See ya in the water

I just put a post into his post called kiters suck
www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=8467
in the windsurfing forums
I put it in there because I think he is just trolling here, and is better served in windsurfing, amongst his peers.
