he really said all that??
if so I'd go for the new 17
much the same size as the old 160 but way way faster plus bettor depower and more custom options to suit your style... what ever that maybe.
Jo you'd bettor translate that back to the gobble de gook that he understands

Ok, you didn't say anything about the bar size though.

Ciao Anony-mouse
Vai con il 17 hombre, è come il vecchio 160 ma più veloce e con più depower e opzioni
Buon vento
Jo

hay jo,

where do you fly in Italy? I am based in Torino which is possibly the worst place on the Earth for Kitesurfing

Ciao Paul,
Naah, sei vicino al Camargue.
Is the post above yours?
Io sono a Cesenatico sull'Adriatico, i prossimi giorni dovrebbe arrivare un bel pò di scirrocco, I love that name.
Hai visto il sito windfinder? Bella storia.
Jo

Ok, The camargue is where braganoff and friends are doin their thang, just along the French coast from where you are, sorry to here about the probs with the Fiat, they are going through a rough spot at the moment.
hey Turin is near some great kitesnowboarding spots, you still be there this winter?
Might come up if I can get this steel pin pulled outta me leg before the winter.
