Here you are, Bill.

The jury unanimously designated the latest winner.


1. I like riding with a safety leash because it makes me feel safe, does anyone else admit that?
(LetsFlyaKite) :winner1:

2. Who has quit hydrofoiling ?

3. Do Kites Fly Better with Strut Vavles [sic] Closed? (alden)

4. Can I use motor oil to waterproof my kite

5. Now can I have first place? (Ned, aka Divine, aka Panchito) with a not anymore ludicrous question.

6. How about a toeside directional World Speed Record? (SupaEZ)

7. Can coriolis effect affect toeside side? (SupaEZ)

8. Is that question for real? (PullStrings, wondering about SupaEZ's question)

9. Is that a tent? (reported by BizB) new entry!

10. REALLY ? smaller [kite] for strong winds? ("one people" on the beach,via SupaEZ)

11. Opinion! If this Human Birdwing is for Real Or Bullsh!t?? (DrLightWind)

12. What is the difference between a double skin foil kite? (Ned)

13. Is kitesurfing really addictive? (panchito)

14. Why are pump bases flat? (consumer)

15. Why are pumps cylinders and pistons round? (Supa EZ)

16. Can a person live in Maui on 20k a year? (rtz)

17. Why are Kite Harnesses so F'n Ugly!? (Laughingman)


Reminder of amended rules: questions brought to the forum from the outside world will be admitted, provided of course they remain kite related.
It is OK for one candidate to appear several times on the list, but not on the same podium.
Further candidates must be aware of one implicit rule: entries must respect basic grammatical rules such as the question mark at the end of a question.

just for fun.

why would anyone make a kite foiling video and think that slow motion would make it look any more exciting?

why are all surfboards hard yet every creature in the ocean that is fast and nimble is soft-ish...the fastest animal in the water is 'soft' not hard like a crab.
