Re: Kitesurfer dies after slamming into wall of home in Fort Lauderdale

This is pretty common in Florida during thunderstorm season. Saw the same thing in Jupiter 3 weeks ago. Luckily all the kiters got in just before it hit. A few wingers were out when it climbed to 50. The problem is we don't have wind without the thunderstorms so everyone goes out before the storm hi...

Re: Tesla Model 3 and kitesurfing gear

We've had a model 3 for almost 2 years. No issues. We have a roof rack with an OC1 rack on the roof. As long as your willing to take your foil apart, I couldn't see an issue. The back seats fold down so there is quite a bit of space.

Re: Self Launch Problem

If you downwind rig your lines and then walk upwind to launch with your lines and bridle taught, you shouldn't have this issue. You need to keep enough tension so the kite stays perpendicular to the lines. The bad part is your kite will drag more and potentially cause more wear. I only have this iss...

Re: Covid vaccine

My take is anyone who dies for unknown reasons within 30 days after the vaccine should be counted as vaccine related death. This one will go uncounted. How many other deaths or serious adverse reactions are occurring without being counted? This example is not hypothetical and just happened. Two wro...

Re: Covid vaccine

How should a death that occurred 5 days after the vaccine be counted? A healthy (no existing conditions, not obese, etc. other than being 65) individual gets the vaccine and dies 5 day later. The family due to religious reasons doesn't want an autopsy. They are also very pro-vaccine so they think th...

Re: Why dont people rig lines cross wind to the kite?

Downwind rigging keeps the bridles from catching on wingtips when self launching. Also, it guarantees that the lines aren't crossed since you can see them all the way up to the kite. Also, if someone is launching you, it keeps you from hot launching since you have to walk up wind to launch. You can ...

Re: Covid vaccine

It is rather a problem because then we can assume there are many walking around being "sick" without knowing it. A new kind of logic that only works in Covid-land I guess. The "new" situation in Covid-land is, that those walking around being "sick" without knowing it, can infect others that are mor...

Re: Covid vaccine

Let's all agree that the government and the pharmaceutical companies are completely trustworthy and would never lie to us. If the government says it's safe, it's definitely safe. Also, while you are out getting your vaccine, can I hold your bitcoin keys for safekeeping? You can PM me your keys...

Have you looked at VAERS? Or is that just a honey pot for unscientific, ignorant, flat earth, no moon landing conspiracy theorists?

Re: Covid vaccine

The way the term "efficacy" is used is perfectly clear in the Lancet paper. I suggest you read the .pdf file. (A person can not produce antibodies without becoming infected). Yes, that article proves my point. Efficacy for the Covid vaccine does not mean the same thing as efficacy for the measles v...
