How do you guys think this topic will ever end? I'm no administrator, but there's a reason a "lock" function exists for internet forums. Just a suggestion. Here's my suggestion. Use the "Friends and Foes" feature. I've added only two people to my "Foes" list in the past seven years. One is "Air Bun...

Bah, you should all spend one full day assisting someone in a hospital where they keep the human vegetables with brain damages. You should smell the shit that lasts for eight hours until they change them, moving them with pulleys like you’d do with dead animals. You should see them almost dying beca...

Mr. Absurd V Have zero chance to have an accident being dragged head first into hard object on land. Learned long ago to do controlled heel drags on land so that the QR can be reached fast and easily. Accidents have been a sprained knee twice and bruised ribs twice. No surfboard hit on head. 0 need...

Do you actually read what other people are write? First you say: "No evidence exists that helmet use leads to any reduction of performance due to some sensory deprivation.

First question to ask is not did he have a helmet ? The first question is why did he stay attached to his kite ? ...

To take the conversation away from whether or not we should be all doing it, could anyone comment on the specifics of kitesurf helmets and why I shouldn't use my skiing one? It is lightweight, fits me like a glove, seems to have as many holes in it as the water specific helmets and the ear pieces a...

I've suffered from lower back problems since early 20s. I've experienced two "locks" that were so painful i had to be transported to the hospital. I literally could not breathe. I would say that when those things happened i was in pretty good overall "apparent" shape (meaning i looked good). I then ...

Aha, So you do not think that if someone makes a law that wearing a helmet is mandatory, the kiting numbers will drop? Right. No need to answer. You said it all. "Aha" what? I dare to consider myself a pretty smart person, but i admit i don't have the slightest clue about what you are talking about...
