Power Kite Forum

Another FREEBIE, HAS COME TO AN END!

bigkid - 9-10-2012 at 07:21 AM

A guy from down under sent me a kite to give away and with it goes a black XL hoodie with EXXTREAM KITES on the back/side with a thing on the left pocket area, or something to that effect.

Anyways the kite is a 5m Ace made by Pansh. The color is Red/White, and a bit of pink/brown dirt stain stuff from the outback, could be from a kangaroo or one of the locals, should clean up well.

This is K/O, not RTF and no leash.:lol: couldn't resist:lol:
I have not tested the kite but I was told it isn't used anymore and it isn't worth a lot so here it is. FREE.

Here are the rules,
1, Send your request to 1freekite@gmail.com
2, Send as many as you want
3, Put the words "free kite" in the subject line. Put "free kite" in the body content. Nothing else is needed. No other info.
4, The emails will be put into a pot and while blindfolded, one will be randomly picked by Mrs. Big Kid. (I think I may like this part)
5, You have 1 week to respond after you are notified of winning to claim you prize. If not, the second pic is the winner.

Let the game begin. And it will end on 10/16/12 when Mrs. BK is ready to pick.

Thanks nocando.

And I forgot to add, free shipping to the lower 48.
Out side of that area, winner pays the extra shipping. OK?:bigok:

bobalooie57 - 9-10-2012 at 08:55 AM

Hey Big Kid....When will the all expense paid trip for 2 weeks to Maui Hawaii start? w/ free shipping of all kite equipment? :D

Love that you do this for all of us...fun just reading the posts! :thumbup:

Bladerunner - 9-10-2012 at 10:14 AM

Very Cool.

The very 1st " Pass " on this forum was " Pass the Pansh (ace) " when the $99 complete promo came out. Now , " Give away the Ace " .

A new tradition begins ! :thumbup:

5m was the 1st size the Ace came out in and I think the dimensions are adjusted from there ? Mine flies well .

:bigok::bigok::bigok::bigok::bigok:

Well Done

lactardjosh - 9-10-2012 at 02:25 PM

Thanks to both bigkid and nocando for the opportunity!

bigkid - 9-10-2012 at 03:09 PM

I am really surprised at the number of emails, WOW.
Got to admit there is one person who is taking advantage of #2, he is determined to stack the deck, I think he wants it real bad.:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

And thanks again nocando


And as for the 3 week Hawaiian Cruise, I'm working on that now. How much can you guys send us? We need about 6000.00 to have a good time. We will post pictures of our trip, it will be as if you are with us.:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: I wish.

big_d - 9-10-2012 at 04:24 PM

lol will I be disqualified if I spam?

Smeagol - 9-10-2012 at 05:10 PM

Nice!

Yeah I was gonna say, should have made #3 say something about unique content in the email body or you'll end up with 100,000 emails from the same person. Haha.

:lol:

bigkid - 9-10-2012 at 05:15 PM

Dont know, will have to see if it gets through the spam filter.:D
Funny how it stopped pyro though. Good try, will have to remove the spam block to let the 200 blocked emails in. Ha ha ha

This is going to be interesting.

pyro22487 - 9-10-2012 at 05:17 PM

I have a good chunk in sorry couldn't help it BK:embarrased:. Oh and Hi Mrs. BK Your wonderful and awesome and…… sorry BIGKID couldn't help myself...:bigok:

big_d - 9-10-2012 at 05:42 PM

spammingggg lol i made a script, let me know if it works :)

bobalooie57 - 9-10-2012 at 06:03 PM

Script? I thought that was what they used for a play or a movie? I guess us old, low tech guys wouldn't have a chance! :smilegrin:

I was going to say earlier that you might be able to spam Big Kid, but he has been known to spam the spammer back!

big_d - 9-10-2012 at 06:20 PM

yeah a small computer script :P ....... or computer program i guess u could call it

Low tech works, just takes a bit more time.
I was thinking the same thing when I got 87 emails a second after I just cleared that account. I'll be nice till the end of this give away, but then watch out.:P
My wife cant understand why Im laughing about this email pile, she doesnt know she has to pick the winner.:lol:

big_d - 9-10-2012 at 06:43 PM

i guess i could write a short movie script and film it quickly, a guy wakes up, reads forum for free kites, sends mass amounts of email, watches bigkidkites wife picks the winner, he wins, flys kite, gets lifted up in the air...To Be Continued!

erratic winds - 9-10-2012 at 06:51 PM

Well, I think you've got a good shot, might want to kill that script ;)

StebbimacDaddy - 9-10-2012 at 08:25 PM

I love this forum.
Thanks for the chance at some new to me ripstop!

Funny how it came as one email with a bunch of attachments. Guess its filed as 1 email, was that your intentions?

big_d - 10-10-2012 at 06:04 AM

not not at all, fail :( must be a gmail thing

pyro22487 - 10-10-2012 at 06:53 AM

Hey I didn't send 200 only like 80ish.

Scudley - 10-10-2012 at 08:23 AM

What is the second prize? two Pansh Aces?
Blade you don't need to enter this one: you already have an Ace that never comes out of the bag.

I have actually been thinking about a consolation prize, but nothing comes to mind. Except the 3 week cruise to Hawaii, and I already won that.:evil::lol:

I wish I knew half the people who have sent an email. Besides I know 2 of you guys very very very very very very very very very very very very well.:lol:

When your e-mail crashes..

skimtwashington - 10-10-2012 at 11:40 AM

"...and Hon?...we don't have a pot that big....:puzzled:"

Suds after thuds - 10-10-2012 at 12:34 PM

hello, my name is peter, I'm a kite addict.

looking forward to buying lines and handles when my lone email needle gets picked out of the haystack

bigkid - 10-10-2012 at 12:39 PM

Big D, That's crazy.

Reminds me of a time when my boys were 13 and they created a game with some friends, "catch the arrow". About 10 of them would gather in the yard across the street and use a compound bow to shoot a broad tip arrow into the sky and try to catch it on the way down before it hit the ground...............in their hand. All the time doing this in about 3 feet of snow. I asked them "What the H--- are you idiots doing?"
They told me they got board using this, holding up a pair of fabric shears on 2 feet of rope.:crazy:

big_d - 10-10-2012 at 01:46 PM

its really no different then skiing or snowboarding, except its on ice, same basic concept as ski cross or boarder cross, i actually think ski/boarder cross is more intense

snowspider - 10-10-2012 at 02:23 PM

I allready got my new kite in a can. Y'all have fun!

sum420gt - 12-10-2012 at 01:34 AM

im new to this site, but i really need a 5m kite !!! i planned on upgrading once i got used to my 3m kite but it would be great if i could have both :D


thanks for doing something as cool as this bigkid, very generous of u :smilegrin:

nocando - 12-10-2012 at 02:37 PM

A weekend bump to the top

for a good cause

sum420gt - 12-10-2012 at 06:18 PM

:thumbup: ty for this nocando, very cool of u to supply stuff for a free give away

bigkid - 16-10-2012 at 04:52 PM

The end has come to another wonderful time spent trying for a freebee.

As soon as the lovely lady of the drawing comes home from her hard day at the office, she will find a pot to pick from. In the pot is the emails of all of those that spammed me and the emails of those that believe only 1 is required to win.
Don't hold your breath cause the first thing she will do after she gets home, before the drawing is give me a big wet one on the lips followed by din-din. Then the moment of truth.

As soon as she makes her pick, you all will be the 3rd one to hear the results. oops, I hear the dog barking, din-dins not ready

ChrisH - 16-10-2012 at 05:29 PM

Hope I get it!! I really need another kite soon! Who doesn't though, right? Hopefully my one entry gets picked but I have my doubts lol.

big_d - 16-10-2012 at 05:34 PM

Well I really need a kite in general! something I can actually fly :P

bigkid - 16-10-2012 at 07:15 PM

Any body know who Alex G. is?

I want to thank, Sterling Pelzel, bob smith, pyro22487, but most of all, Dimitri A, you guys pulled out all the stops and loaded up the emails. I had a great laugh at the numbers you guys sent, it almost payed off. The winner only sent in 2.

big_d - 16-10-2012 at 08:00 PM

Nope, but if hes no where to be found, lets go alphabetical order :)

bestia - 16-10-2012 at 08:01 PM

Hi, everybody. I'm thrilled to tell everyone that I am the winner. This is actually the 1st time in my life I won something :-)
nocando , thanks a lot for your advise about the freebie. I followed the lead and got it!!!
1BIGKID, you are awesome ! Really appreciated.

Snake - 16-10-2012 at 08:43 PM

Bob Smith is me. Thats not my real name BTW.

bigkid - 16-10-2012 at 08:56 PM

Nocando's name got into the pot somehow, would have been funny sending him the kite if he won.:lol:

A big :thumbup: to Glenn and Everyone who played, thanks for the fun.

sum420gt - 16-10-2012 at 09:37 PM
