I support Rick and his crusade. Sure I'd appreciate some pictures and video footage, but I realize that it's not always practical to film someone's death. Reading all of Rick's safety tips has informed me immensely. I feel that formal instruction is not at all necessary with all the wealth of inform...

Isn't amazing how money corrupts? These guys can't even see their own role in this farce... Couldn't agree more. After reading all this pimp-talk, you can tell they're doing their best at deluding themselves. If they were sponsored by Mr. Hankey, I'd bet you could feed them a plate of shit and they...

LOL!!!! :lol: Man, if you haven't already done so - run out to the patent office! And bring the spork with you - you might want to patent that as well. Just the name is good enough to crack me up.... So would you say the calf gasket is more effective at deflecting spray, or attracting the ladies?

Don't put him on the spot man! An opinion is a very personal thing - just like an anus. And did you ever stop to think that maybe the guy didn't really see any difference in those kites? Do you want him to make stuff up? If a guy can't tell the difference between 20+ kites, he shouldn't be crucified...

Good point - but are you saying we're getting what we paid for? Yes, but Waker also makes a very good point. The only way you'd ever close to an unbiased evaluation is if the magazine was directly paid for by people buying the magazine - i.e. no advertisers. Imagine how the LEI world would be in an...

I'm very happy to see so many people not buying this smoke and mirrors trick. In that sense, I'd say the article is a great success. I was initially caught up in the article's hype until I realized that I had two useless gear guides on my coffee table. Magazines won't bite the hand that feeds them a...

And there might be people out in the big world who actually do know how to give a good lesson? That wasn't the point. I'm convinced my instructor did know how to give a good lesson. 2 things were at play - his laziness and his company's money-saving techniques. Poor guy was probably earning below m...

You probably did not have (I hope) a leashless kite, you just had a safety system that had a safety system that used the chicken loop line as the leash, when deployed. Sounds like you had no idea how it worked though, which is unforgivable! And incredibly dumb of your instructor to let you use a an...
