Re: French Kiteboard Inventor Sell Patents as Knockoffs Multiply

I believe the article is about the expiration of the original patent and the frustration of not earning anything on the bow kite (pending) patent. The only people earning from this so far are the lawyers. Nothing against lawyers... just stating the likely reality. In any case, Bruno is perhaps the o...
