Re: Jumping Upwind of someone

Seems obvious that the guy upwind shouldn't jump into guy downwind.
I had suspected satan was.

It is just unfortunate his 'joke' is the first semi-serious-looking reply to a thread that could have been a quite tragic accident.

Re: Jumping Upwind of someone

The guy doing the trick has right of way. The guy that got hit should not have been in his way. If you don't agree with this I suggest you take up windsurfing where you just go back and forth in one dimension. Or maybe take up yachting if you got the money to buy a boat. :nono: no always just like ...

Cockney, check http://www.inflatablekite.com/site%20bow/page1gb.html 3 pages of photographs showing development of the bow since feb 2002. I agree with you though, while bows have been developed for 3 years, it would be wrong for each individual manufacturer to claim that "they" have been developing...

I have now spoken to Geraint, the auctioneer, who was very reasonable and understanding and we spoke for some time about the board and where it stands in the law's eyes. At this point I'd like to apologise to him for wrongly saying that the board is mine, in both this thread title and posts held wit...

Is there a chance the shop you bought the board from would have the serial # in their records? Yeah, good idea. Hadn't thought of that - have been trying to get through but I'm guessing they're all out kiting! Karl, thanks for that info. I didn't post any public notices but I did inform the police ...

I would use the carrot and stick approach. Call him up and offer him a reward for the board BEFORE you get the police involved. He may figure 50 quid is better than a police hassle and potentially nothing. Yeah, true. Thanks for the advice - i'll do this beforehand definitely. the auction has anoth...

I'm from swansea and I think I actually met this guy (in aberavon). He came up to us as we were getting changed one day and started asking questions about how much a kitesurf board was worth, was it worth putting on ebay, could he get new fins stuff like that. I think he even said it was a cabrinha...

Thanks for the tips everyone, I am still awaiting his reply from the first email I sent but if I do not hear from him this evening I will send another offering some money for his troubles of returning it to me (plus the postage of course). The only trouble is I didn't make a note of the serial.. a b...
