These days I would prob choose something different but nothing wrong with the overlap between a 15m speed an...

Re: Is using so much wind for kiting linked to global warmin

the way i see it but im happy to be told im wrong you can effect climate to a very small degree due to changing the wind patterns but having a effect on global warming is a different mattter. Changing an areas climate does not actually mean your causing global warming. To induce global warming you w...

Re: Homemade kite bags

For packing kites for traveling i find a waterproof backpack liner from a outdoor store are good.

Re: Freestyle kitesurfing game

im hooked. plays like a alpha but awsome potential and already definitely fun in its rough state Could be really fun on the wii, but personally i dont think its really needed.
