Anyone going to be in SC near Kiawah island the week of the 27th of March who would be willing to let me try out some modern (>07) C kites or some
SLEs/hybrids?PHREERIDER - 2-3-2010 at 10:24 PM
can't remember the last time i pumped a kite,
sorry i don't have anything within those limits,

Heck, I figure to still be learning and expanding at 50, but don't see myself pumping any tube kites though. Can't rule anything out though. You
guys have fun in SC. I'll be there next weekend.tridude - 6-3-2010 at 10:06 AM
