Nice one WG....you done well for the first time outWELDNGOD - 28-9-2010 at 01:53 PM
Glad you guys like it! I LOVE it!:wee:
@ Phree , The rideable part of my beach is real narrow, so turn arounds are impossible, but the runs between turn point to turn point are
AWESOME . And it reminds me of a dirtsurfer too. Sure I can, if you can draw it ,I can build it.
@ Rich , the leanin' is to counter the pull of the kite, you steer it by pushing out slightly on the side you want to go to. You never lean a
motorcycle to turn it ,you PUSH out on the handlebars and the bike w fall to that side. The harder you push ,the further over it will go. It is called
"the racers edge" and once learned you can take turns at unbelievable speeds, but you're layed way over. (Used to road race motorcycles in the mid
80s, illegally of course. I do not condone this now, but it is what it is.) Getting going is the wierd part.
@ Scott , Yeah , one day when I was leavin , these 2 dudes just appeared carryin kites and a landboard. I thought the heat was gettin' to me, but
they were real!
So now I got a bud to text when I'm headin out. He's a member of PKF now goes by "whodat757" I believe . Real cool dude, I'm gonna get him hooked on
buggies:o
@PTW Carl, thanks dude,comin from you that means alot. Once I got it goin, I was all over it.WELDNGOD - 28-9-2010 at 02:44 PM

Donnie I used to ride myself. Had a GSXR 1100 worked over. Know all about the "pushing". It was more like a xbox 360 lean! LOL
Glad you are loving it!WELDNGOD - 28-9-2010 at 03:49 PM
