I have an AirRush Pickle fork that I think is kinda special. It rides like the dog it was, but I never had a winterstick (first snowboard) either so as bad of rap they have i'm keeping mine.

The firsts of everything? All North stuff

There was a brand many years back (maybe about 2003 or 2004?) that came up with a through the bar inside a tube flagging line but it never caught on.

Gaastra made a kite with double bladders in the LE so there was a stiffening rib between them.

Aaron's handlepass ring that got banned.

I remember those because I had come up with the same ideas just before they appeared. Necessity being the mother of invention kinda coincidence.

First Naish 4 line kite the AR5.

First bow kite Takoon Nova?

I held on to my x10 for the longest time thinking that I would enjoy taking it back out, but i realized that is not for me. Thought I think there are shapes that would be great to have in a kite museum so to speak, I would not want to be the one to take care of it. It was great back then, but cannot at all compare to the current gear.

a kiteski, cquad

and one of the most wacky boards of all time - the huge asymmetrical bic with an aeroplane wing graphic on it

The real deal crome hellfish, unpopped, undelamed, that would be the absolute sweetest.

I know someone on here who bought a pretty minty naish virus from Lou himself. Think it might be signed! Thats a nice piece of kit to be preserved.

Hey, that the kite Simon gave you for being such a doubter about the new technology? And if I recall, you loved it....probably until it started to disintegrate on you!

Naish AR 3.5 2 liner!! And the Flowbee Reel bar.

I want to get a ride on that Kiteski!!!!

I don't miss my C Quads though.

I have 2 naish virus protos that were handed down from Lou to a friend of mine and then I got them. There is hand written notes on them about the type of seam etc. One is red and the other grey. No size just medium and small I think. I think these are pretty rare indeed. I have a cquad 4.2as well.
