Has someone intimidated my witness?

I didn't know you were involved with some legal case. Nobody has spoken to me or contacted me about anything. I only speak the truth.

[Neither Switch nor Slingshot are retailers in the traditional sense, but in the 21st century, here in the US at least, it's become common place for brands to sell direct. I think this is the disconnect. Traditionally we're used to the "margin system" business model of supporting an independent ret...

You make an interesting accusation Do Yoda. One I never thought of. A middle man must hold inventory which in the case of Switch is a 3rd party building in England, Hong Kong and somewhere else I think. You say Switch has broken the Advertising Standards Authority of New Zealand code of conduct by ...

Da Yoda, every year, state organs confiscate dangerous toys and christmas tree lights? do you agree? they do that in your country? So, dangerous goods are not allowed to be imported. Thankfully yes we do that here (not perfectly though). But that's with known products that have the potential to mai...

I think the Envy 12m is tuned around a 55/56cm bar if I'm not mistaken. The 20" Slingshot bar should work fine, but you will find the response to be a bit slower due to the narrower line width. Not sure about the pigtail orientation.

Can you use different bar for different brands of kites? I left my bar at my vacation home, and was wondering is a bar from my smaller other brand would work? Thanks Rule for mixing kites with bars: If you can find a bar that is identical or very close in spec to the stock bar that a given kite has...

Boardsports California is the US distributer and also retails them. Looks like they may already have them available...
