I had grand plans of becoming a kite boarder a few years ago so I went to a shop in Hood River and bought a 11 meter EH Cabaret Beast Kite with all the lines, bar and harness as well as a BIC 5'10" Fish surfboard equipped with foot straps if anyone here is from the Hood River area and wants a good deal on a pile of gear that has been stored well and basically unused let me know. -Ben

that stuff is all 15 years old. Boy will he be surprised when the gear he spent $2,000 on is worth at most $200. He's probably thinking a "good deal" will net him $1000 but nope, kite gear ages like spilt milk.

Exactly. It’s worth zero or some unsuspecting newbie is going to get hurt.

Those poly 5'10" Bic boards are still a lot of fun Ben. I had one for Gorge strapless riding and it was really nice in the swells as well as out on the coast. Tahe, formerly BIC still even makes 'em. I'd consider making an offer on it I was in the Gorge. Make sure you don't give this piece of gear away for nothing, it's still relevant in my opinion, especially for bigger riders, or riders who don't like riding fragile little toothpick boards.
