well i can get that gps and use it if i ever go snowboarding again see how fast i really go as it always look slow when u show people videos

 

wait a couple of days, cause hopefully we should be getting one of these bad boys:

also should hopefully have one of these bad boys by the weekend:

Garmin eTrex Legend Outdoor Handheld WASS Enabled GPS on eBay, also, GPS Systems, GPS, Consumer Electronics (end time 27-Nov-08 18:10:40 GMT)

 

RRP £109.00, buy it now £138.00 WTF ???

 

lol yeah that dont make sense, luckily not buying from there!!!! lol

 

Done some updates tonight.

Went to get some new gloves for next weekend, so headed down to Graham at Wet&Dry Boardsports.

Came home with the latest 3mm offering from ION, these are dead warm and comfy. Also are made with the fingers already bent especially for kite surfing, so ideal for use with buggy handles i thought



Also see these DaKine kite surfing adjustable footstraps and had an idea to modify them to fit my buggy. So cam home and set to work. They fit awesome and really feel super snug. Well chuffed




Also recieved my Petzl mini ****** block roller (Cheers Active-8) so now completes the captive system. Shortened my strops and jobs a goodun.



For those that may also notice i got a ball bearing in the linkage that is just free enough to slide. This will stop the release sliding to the other side of the gate and wont fall out without seriously jamming open the catch and prying it out. Tried every which way to get this to fail in some way but it just wont. So should be bombproof.



Clean and clutter free

 

Stunning mate

LOL you crack me up

 

Lol, what you laughing at?

 

Lol nothing just YOU bieng YOU

Oh & appy birthday buddy

 

LOl, dunno what ive done lol, but cheers anyway lol

 

are you boys barleylanding or sunday or anyone coming with me on saturday??

 

Im playing Golf saturday buddy So that's me out !!

However ...

Im leaving ESC Hq @ 6.45am Sunday morning @ heading down to Southampton to collect " Tinyphoon " @ ETA - 9am

Im then heading from there to Barleylands to test her out , Though the forecast both weather & wind does not look to clever for either day , but Sunday does the best of the two if a choice has to be made

 

i've gotta buggy saturday matey.

What time do you reckon you will be there sunday?? may have to do a flying visiting to view your new bug

 

Okies dude , understand , mind that thumb print


I Hope to be back @ BL By about midday on sunday mate

Had a change of plan regarding using it @ Camber now , I'm going to put the hold on getting it painted , fitting the new seat , fitting the new siderail covers until after camber now , think it's going to be messy down there , wet sand , sea water etc ..

I'll be if me new buggy gets dirty on its first trip out , so just going to use it as it comes & then strip get painted fit all new bits & then get out over BL with it all new & shiny

Need to get all the above done though (new stuff ) So it does not run over a weekend just in case i miss a day bugging

 

LOL my forehead is killing me lol

yeah same here, mine will be going in after camber as well. LOL yeah know what you mean, think Darren may be busy 1 week soon he he

 

Great idea mate, some of us have good ideas like that

 

 

Cant wait for the weekend.

Think i have all my kit for camber now too

 

Well Ross is on his way over shortly to collect the W I D E B O Y

 

good boy.....

weather looking a bit ropey this weekend...but hey ho will that stop us!!!! lol

 

Yeah 7 Metre kite @ the ready for you Saturday mate , Not alot of wind , Forecast is looking beter for Sunday now though


Wind Map - Britain

 

yeah saturday looks to be the drier, but lower winds gonna have to get the 7m out as you say ......just glad i got insurance!!!!

 

Yeah me to i think mate , Just need to pick up one of those sand stake corksrew thingimie jiggies , though i do not think the kite is going to be on the sand alot

 

Are we there yet

 

even though i am not quite up to the standard of you boys yet, cannot wait until camber

 

You'll progress no end at Camber Spally

 

Yep totally agree with that , loads of open space , firm surface & clean hopefully strong wind

 

I think some speed records are gonna be smashed at camber big boy.
Trying to decide if i should keep the little axle on or not. Seeing as ive just got used to it again

 

Yeah agree with the speed

Sure you will be able to pull more power through the wide axle mate , But if you stick with the skinny one it will sure feel a bit lairy @ speed

Oh & someones after a wide flexi axle on FF if you were thinking of getting shot of it @ any time

 

Yeah i see that mate, gonna keep it for the time being.

I know i will be able to pull more power but its only the fact that ive just got used to the shorty again thats putting me off. Not sure how norty a freestyle flexi will feel at over 30mph... lol

 

Yeah a bit twitchy i would imagine , ask Dazza he's come close 25mph over @ BL
