You're just getting sponsored all over the place, aren't you!

Bladerunner - 16-11-2010 at 07:43 AM

It is always fantastic to see somebody join this forum and then live the " dream " !

It says something to everybody from Doomwheels creating the type of forum that can do it to the beginer who is looking to us to figure out how get there !

You do the whole PKF Family proud!

That's really great news! Good for you! I think someone must have some video's he's been holding out on!! Hmmmmm....????

edit: Oh, and I wish that all of us could buy you a beer! Now that would be funny! (well, up to a point!)

I've got two main kite trips coming around the corner between now and the end of the year. Hopefully i'll get a clip out there for everybody to see. Also I think i'll make a few instructional videos like; how to get started rolling on your board, how to roll upwind/downwind, how to jump, etc.... I want to focus more on getting people in North america started in the kite community versus just being a compettive rider and thinking about myself.

Jim, what the heck is a LANBOARD anyway?:smilegrin:

shehatesmyhobbies - 16-11-2010 at 03:58 PM

Congrats man! Can't wait to see a nice video of you ripping it up on the board!

That goes for you too Donnie!:smilegrin:

WELDNGOD - 16-11-2010 at 04:50 PM

Yeah , but I stay on the ground for the most part.

flyjump - 16-11-2010 at 05:23 PM

You turds! ha haha making fun of the excited kid. I was shaking and trying to type all of that stuff into my phone on the forum at 6 am! Trying to stay calm after that news is impossible. If my students saw that they would give me so much crap for typing it in wrong.

Rip, were you talking to Roger about me at 3am?

I'm also glad that some of you guys think I have the skills to ride for PL, I feel honored that you guys think that good of me....even you guys giving me crap lol.

I hope to see you all at NABX this year!

Kamikuza - 16-11-2010 at 05:30 PM

Good for you! :thumbup: I'm jealous :D

flyjump - 16-11-2010 at 05:37 PM

WELDNGOD - 16-11-2010 at 05:50 PM

rocfighter - 16-11-2010 at 05:57 PM

Very wicked cool news man. Enjoy all the bennifits but don't forget us little guys. We expect tidbits of knowlage from your future journeys.

flyjump - 16-11-2010 at 05:57 PM

WELDNGOD, I definatly appreciate it :) I really hope we can meet up this year...maybe i'll throw you some Trampa freebees

I appreciate the time put into sharing your knowledge and experience.

flyjump - 16-11-2010 at 06:11 PM

rocfighter, i definatly won't forget everybody...this forum is the exact reason that i was able to make it onto PL. I'll let you know all of the info that I get, unless i'm told not to share it

Labrat, my main focus that I want to put into PL is trying to get other people involved as much as possible. i'd like for the new kiter to get the right kind of know how, just like carltb does. when i first started kiting there was a guy who gave me really bad advice on how to kite and what to buy. it made me so angry because I ended buying junk and it took me awhile to figure out what exactly that I needed...this forum was the greatest help on that journey
