kinda Funny pump me up the truth of the matter is.

I could go further upwind then you could on any lei with my F-arcs and G-arcs Its undisputed.

Secondly If you actually tried an F-arc you would agree they jump bigger.

The funny thing is today I was cruzing along and holding ground in a mere 10-12 knots on my F12 while an 21m LEI had no performance gains over me. 12m vs 21m and I would to see him hold it down in 25 knots like I can the F.

Give it time and you will see.

PMU I took you up on your bet but you bottled it at odds of 64-1, you obviously believe what you say but not 100% - I'd think otherwise you would of given odds of 1000 - 1.

Never mind you missed out on winning my 10 quid.

PS How's the therapy going.

I think i got it now.
PMU's plan for world Foil-Ram domination.

1) Anti-Foil-Ram propaganda effect causes all Foil-Ram users to sell, sell, sell.

2)Foil-Ram market crashes.

3) PMU and PMU's minions buy up all Foil-Rams and manufacturing resources.

4)PMU wins PKRA with new super Foil-Ram.

5)Demand for Foil-Rams explodes.

5a)PMU corners Foil-Ram market and reaps in a fortune.

6)PMU throws huge party for all kitesurfers in the world.

PMU, I'll be watching you :o

Dear Pump,

You must NOT use your pump to inflate your head or other parts of your body. Read the warnings, overinflation may cause bladder to explode.

Well, I guess it's pretty close now....


I do love my inflatable kites and would never change to RAM's but hey,come on, respect dude... There is no need for this on this forum.

Over and out!

PMU,

I already took you on on that bet 2 months ago, you clearly do not read the posts & replies on your topics because else you would have known, still waiting for that Personal Message on the bet.

Thanks and waiting...

I wonder if his "ram-air" persecution complex is still relevant today? Bloody hell - I can get over 10meter jumps with my Flysurfer, than I could with a similar sized LEI kite that in the end needs way more wind.
