well i've noticed a general downturn in all forum activity. i blame fakebook and twatter.
people are just setting up there on forum style groups and chatting between themselves.

ps this thread is adding to the already boring list of threads.

PS What i've noticed is if you post up something positive sharing your stoke you get a few blokes going "yeah sweet"
but if you post of something negative or emotive yourl getting 20 pages of posts.
i'm prove my point.

Facebook is so utterly full of crap even if you keep a small friend and like list. it will end up eating itself - but not quite yet. pinterest was lookin good ... until facebook bought it! phpbb or similar needs a facebook style front end , but nothing like that exists yet, facebook makes good use of such a small space on the screen and all the basics work so well.

The season is well under way up here in the northern hemisphere - if your evening is full of kiting, then why sit on the interweb? Not everyone has a slack-ass job and can slack around, running up their post count :cool2:

guys the truth is, kite designers and R&D folk have dried up. Everything is done. Tried. We're at the apex of kite riding and gear. Gear prices are rock bottom, styles are defined. PMU is proven right which shuts even him up.
So bring on the MOST SEXY stuff and FUNNIEST whatev posts!

signing off,
El Rudo :bye:


Thanks El Rudo. Indeed, the kite world almost 100% acknowledges the superiority of inflatables over ram airs :cool2:
