its been awhile but back to the bar this afternoon............winds were ESE, 6 to 9 kts, 12m Speed 2 weapon of choice................couple signs then park and ride. The Speeds are def great buggy motors as they race to the edge and pull and pull and..........................no pics but it was a blast.....................

The BF tires float so the sunbathers on the beach were surprised that I walked back to the beach with buggy floating in tow................and yes I wore a helmet.......:spin::spin::o:o

NICE!!!

yep, the speed makes for a good buggy engine too. Pascal (FS TR) is doing very well right now on the GPA circuit.

if you're looking for a do-all kite the speed is it.

DINO, are you listening ... buy one. LOL.

not sure but Ill check this week.................regardless come on down, beach crowds will be/are dwindling......................and yes Houston I do need some footage................I have to say this is a must do buggy location...................riding between 2 bodies of water for about a mile is awesome..........................(note: make sure you have BF tires or a boat)

I believe today was the 4th session on the bar with the Phantom........................awesome spot, winds were 11/12mph which is on the lower end for the 12 but with the hardpack she provided plenty of power and speed...................great afternoon and the Phnatom is an awesome buggy kite...........................:bigok::bigok:
