Big Air when Blown Out?
You know, far too often recently dives plans have been scuppered because of the weather. Well, I've found the answer - not to getting a dive in of course, but what else to do instead of sitting in a pub.






OK, I'm nowhere as good as these guys having only recently started but even so it's bloody good fun.

I know there are a few other kiters on YD - in fact I recently bought a buggy from another member recently following a post on the Flexifoil forum. So, who else is up to this when the wind get's up?

Hope youv'e got an understanding employer and good health insurance !!
A buddy of mine took it up and over a year has broke nearly every limb !!
in fact I don't think Iv'e ever seen him recently without a pot on!!

Must admit though it looks quit exhillarating, the guy's who get on cleethorpes beach are quite entertaining to watch.....

I'd recommend this lot if you need some training or somewhere local to fly. My lad's just started with a landboard now and I think I might give the buggy a go.

ABW are about 2 mins away as they are in the same village - I've been there a great deal lately getting very muddy and wet given the recent weather we've been having.

Have a go on the buggy - be warned tho it's very addictive.

I've got a small (3.5m2) kite with a landboard, I'm no good on it but the kite is fun. Great to go down to Watergate Bay to see the Pro's & Semi-Pro's doing it.
