Using Twitter to organise random downwinders....
If anyone else (possibly many) using Twitter - could it be used to let members matchup for downwinders? Often guys at the beach maybe interested in a downwinder but their regular crew are unavailable…

My strongest memory of my last trip to Florida (2002) was to see a huge shark lying in the back of a F300 Utility driving down I76 I think it was... This fisherman snagged a huge shark - he had to leave the tail gate down as the shark wouldn't fit i…

Eclipse Kima Kites for me....
Made the change back to tube kites for this season for a couple reasons:
1. I got shoulder tendinitis a couple years ago after riding a switchblade 3 with gigantic throw and the stopper system which just didn't work and became an industry joke....

3. Also the 2009 range of tube kites at the time available locally were uninspiring and the America… Continue

- Build quality of the kites are very good, performance also very good - bar has a dodgie Quick Release that apparently falls apart after 6 months but has been OK on mine so far 3 months. They have offered to send me a replacement when they arrive from China. Check build quality of mine out and then decide for yourself....
