we dont have the same pumps as 10 years ago. 10 years ago they looked like grease guns and took half an hour to pump your kite. Also the relatively new fast pump wide valves are great those are only a few years old.darippah wrote:in this day and age why are we still using the same pumps as 10 years ago? seems by now we should have wider and longer options (that's what she said) with ability to change to pump only on down stroke

If you want to spend for a tall pump that are used for SUPs you can get a very high quality pump,

that's the bravo about $75
I prefer the yellow air head $15.
