just reqading an "old post that i couldnt reply" but so true,
i go kiting as much as i can (wife, work and kids permitting) and i never use sun block...
also cause i wear a helmet when i kite, i cant find a pair of sunnies that i can wear with out pushing on my temples and giving me a headheach with in 30 min of kiting, youd have to do some damage salt spray, wind, etc etc in your eyes in a 4 hr seasion.

any way just having a winge whislt being a little pissed .......could write for ever about winges...

ill never understand......
any way thanks for listening be good kite hard

"Dear sirs,

I have been drinking.

I also was kiting.

I have a wife.

If you piss your wife off she will nag at you,
If you REALLY piss her off she may give you the silent treatment.

Sometimes you just have to put the extra effort in
