This would be a fine time for a retailer/distributor to become of North American distributor for said publication. Perhaps combined pricing would drop the pricing a bit.... wondering if it is already carried by anyone that owns a storefront as a counter display.... seems like it would be an eye-catcher for someone coming in looking for information.

A digital version (which shouldn't be too rough as most printers now accept jobs in high resolution PDF format), would definitely take the bite out of overseas shipping.

I bought one and checked out the previews of other issues on line but they had very little in the way of buggying. Not biased-- ATB and water is cool, but I'm too old to start banging my body on the ground learning to ATB and I dont live near good water..

It was a cool mag though, Im big on having one to hold, not mouse thru. I'm old I guess. Plus it fits on the back of the toilet...

I'd buy it regulalry if it was "locally" priced.

Ricardo, dd any of us happen to make it in that issue?

Feyd - 3-5-2011 at 08:09 AM

I think the content changes from issue to issue.

The one issue I got prior to NABX had a bunch of snowkite info and a buyer's guide breakdown of a bunch of kites.

A few articles on Buggy riders and some ATBs. It would be nice to see a mag like that here but we don't have the demand yet I guess.

its an all round magazine, Feyd has been featured too

the current one is pre-nabx

so the next issue probably contains the PTW Aftermath

"Whoop whoop Chris Krug"

I'm gonna just start yelling that at random just for the hell of it. (J/K)

I do yell "Wolveriiiiiiiines!" when I see some of the Russian kiters lately. We're on the ice and I don't know if the can really hear me or even understand the joke, they probably just think I'm a Jacka$$.

Which I'll admit I sometimes am.:spin:\

I saw the PTW article and it looked great. Gret pix, great interview.

I'm old enough to know what you mean when you holler "Wolverines!" Red Dawn is a favorite movie. I'd like to see it done again with a big budget and I guess jihadists instead of Russians this time.

Oh my.... a Red Dawn reference. Curse you for making me feel old. May your camel develop eremikophobia. :mad:





A remake of Red Dawn is currently in production.

A) Sorry, I didn't mean to date myself or anyone else here though I find odd comfort in the fact that you guys got the reference.

B) I AM SO GETTING THAT SHIRT!

C) Why would they do a remake?! Can't anyone just leave good movies alone? (sigh)

I've got a few of the latest issues, including the one that came out ysterday, laying around the house. I'm happy to mail them to somebody who would like to read them especially if they will send me some of this: http://quakeroats.elsstore.com/app/images/product/large/0300... to London. British people know nothing about grits and I am dying over here!

U2U me if you want
