Seriously this. That petition was likely signed by people who have never hung out or gotten drunk/high with sailors; we're a lot of fun and throw the best parties in organized sport! Don't you people realize we all love going fast over water powered only by the wind? What's wrong with everyone that they can't find common cause in that?james wrote: ↑Tue May 08, 2018 10:46 pmBuyer of patent goes to prison...
So? Doesn’t mean he can’t keep it.
As for touting that petition, what’s the goal? As in what’s the end game? The feel good once kiting has split even further?
Why promote division all for someone else’s financial gain, the IFKO ain’t a charity. Neither is world sailing but they don’t pretend to be.
All the people getting upset about this niche section of kiting wanting to be part of the Olympics, so what? Why is it so important that you stop them?
And to Longwhitecloud...did you really post that you're upset WS is sponsoring and organizing events? Like, to find out that an international body is making this sport happen at the grass roots level makes you upset somehow?
That's the definition of being a sourpuss!
