Hi friends,

Ive been working on a buggy for disabled folk, you may remember a few months back I was asking for design help. Well things are moving right along so if you want to check me out have a click here:

Also tell your wheelchair friends! They deserve to be strapped to kites too!

Happy trails,

I wish you all the best with this, Skye. I've put it on the XK forum (Aus) for the locals to have a look at too.

Skye has 114 supporters! Still plenty of time to help out!

I like the sound of your bearings. Max 50Kph ? Is this your personal best or the maximum you wish to go? You've perfected the turns, not easy I know. I did the same when using a kite to pull a BMX, had to completely let go of the handle bars and swap hands when turning.
