I threw in the towel on bladders

Sold my LEIs. Hoo-ray!!
Always traveling, fixing, finding room
to pack a pump.
I'm so over it...
I have my mind set on going back to PL kites.
Miss the simplicity, and all of the
great characteristics...
progressed a lot since the V1 16 and B10.5
I learned on back in 2006.

There is only one unknown ARC rider
here in Oahu, Hawaii,
that I know of, who flies an 18m Phantom
regularly and he has definitely stoked a fire for me
to use the ARC engine again.
He's always having a good time out there,
and He did well in the Naish Oahu
Kiteboarding race here in Aug'10.

Have the 8m/10m SYNERGY kites,
but that leaves me still searching for the
main kite in the quiver,
I am specifically looking around for a
Charger 15m.
(Wish for 14-24 MPH at 170 lbs,
intermediate on a Xanadu 6ft fish directional)

On the way is a 3.5m HQ Hydra
4-line depower mod from John at Powerzone,
in the NW, USA. I'll let you know
how that works as a challenging
trainer for the kiteboarding interested
men in my group, as well as a
Freebord/kayak/MBS board engine.

L8tr,
Today

Shh ... don't tell the haters or they'll string you up

I think Mark the Albatross is also in the Hawaii area ... he's got Chargers & Synergys IIRC and for sure rides a surfboard.

I have sent a few Chargers into Hawaii so there is a few riders. You are not alone - still the minority though. Others will learn.
