Re: Florida kiteboarder critically injured when he crashes into St. Peter pier

Guys,

take a spoon of cement and stop winging.

It takes an astronaut to go into space. If you are not one, dont go.

Die as a man. Where is a real man this days when all but a few just winge about the safety?

A mountain climber died yesterday. It was his pashion.

Deal with it.

Re: High Pressure kite by Bruno Legaignoux
