finally months after nabx the RII 2.2m Prototype has come back to me.

Its been everywhere from the NABX to Fano and has landed in Canada forever.

Thank to the guys at Peter Lynn Kites (Marijn and designer Michel Dekker) and my Bros: Ruud / Ozzy (building me the fastest buggy in the world) / Arie / Robert / Maarten and also my better half Maria. Not to forget my USA riding buds, Speedy Eli and Eat my Dust - Sunset Jim.
Also for pushing me daily at NABX to drive in the extreme winds when they did, and waking me up at 5:00am and yelling WIND in the phone. It was the best NABX trip ever with the whole Dutch Crew.

The kite will never be flown again, since its been signed.

My personal record currently sits at 108.2 Km/h
Until next year ....

Holy Crap!

If anybody wonders if the stoke this sport gives ever lets up , check Rip' out !

He sounds as excited as people just getting in to this after only 15 or so years ! :bouncy:

You sound more excited than when you posted about either of your actual Babies ;-)
