Re: Standard category name for Firewire Vanguard-style board

Plummet, You miss the point as to why I said you would not find me surfing on a mutant kiteboard. It is not that I am a cool kid. At 47 I may be older than you. The days of caring what anyone thinks of me as being cool are in the distant past. The point is that I do not think it would be functional ...

Re: Standard category name for Firewire Vanguard-style board

Plummet, Saying the Vanguard is a mutant or a slur between a TT and a surfboard is wrong. It is a surfboard. It is the only surfboard I have surfed on for the last three years in waves of every shape and size. You will not find me or anyone else trying to surf on a mutant kiteboard. The guy who desi...

Re: Hatteras in Early May

Someone else posted a thread about late April thru early May looking for someone to share a house they rented. If your dates are flexible do that. If you have to stay alone try the Salvo Inn. The money you will spend each way on airport transfers will almost cover the cost of a rental car for the we...

Re: Are the Euros ruining kiting? Answer is yes.

Drgnfly , Thanks for making my point! Still waiting for the answers to my questions. Jbrook pimped "his" spot for years and now he is upset that he was successful at it. So now he has found another secret spot. How long until photos of it are all over Facebook? I have never understood the need to do...

Re: Are the Euros ruining kiting? Answer is yes.

Jbrook , What kind of photographer are you? You have lived in this spot for seven years. Is all of your income from photography? Do you take pictures of kiters, wildlife, landscapes, girls sunbathing or beach scenes? If the answer to any of these questions is yes then you are directly responsible fo...

Re: RRD Cotan vs Firewire Vanguard

Romanc, I am 5'7 145lb and have ridden the 5'2 Vanguard kite version a few times in good waves. It caught waves good and was great to surf on but was hard to paddle around the lineup. It is obviously much heavier and stiffer than you would want in a surfboard but I still had fun with it. I have sinc...

Re: Madeira in October

I checked out that guys Facebook page and found a few videos of him kiting some of the same places I surfed. Very impressive even though the surf was on the small side for Madeira. I can not imagine kiting those spots. I still think those spots are not kitable for anyone not at a high skill level an...
