Excited to see what comes up for sale!!!!

3shot - 30-6-2014 at 05:01 PM

Oh Lord. My wallet never seems to recover. Lay it on us Jeff!!

riffclown - 30-6-2014 at 06:23 PM

3shot.. I may ask you to pick up something for me on this..

ssayre - 1-7-2014 at 04:51 AM

We still have a few hours to wait before the West coast wakes up. ;)

IFlyKites - 1-7-2014 at 08:41 AM

Are reservations allowed? If you have any power or stunt kites between 3m - 5m I will buy them.

BeamerBob - 1-7-2014 at 08:59 AM

Careful there. Jeff can probably break most banks given an offer like that.

Windy Heap - 1-7-2014 at 11:40 AM

Hey Jeff, you know me, local buyer and I've got cash.

lets meet up at Marymore Park again sometime soon.


kiteballoon - 1-7-2014 at 03:48 PM

You tease so much! Prices and goodies man!

skimtwashington - 1-7-2014 at 04:11 PM



Waiting for it...




3shot - 1-7-2014 at 04:18 PM

Yeah, my watch must be broke.....

USA_Eli_A - 1-7-2014 at 05:24 PM

I heard that a lot of people are calling him direct before he posts his list...

If you want to score good equipment that is well kept. CALL HIM ASAP!!

hiaguy - 1-7-2014 at 06:53 PM

Seriously though, has anyone read his bio lately?

Jeff, what's up? What happened?

SpecialK - 1-7-2014 at 08:06 PM

>I heard that a lot of people are calling him direct before he posts his list...
That's cheating! Insider trading!!!!!

>Seriously though, has anyone read his bio lately?
Yeah I don't know him and have never met him, but the info there is a bit sad.. I hope you're doing ok man.

B-Roc - 2-7-2014 at 06:09 AM

Just read his bio. So is this sale a final sale?

bigkid - 2-7-2014 at 06:55 AM

I got the list together and thats were it stands. Dealing with 2 people here that refuse to answer any form of comunication, so my attitude is a bit on the "kiss my a**" side of life at the moment.

For my last big freebie I have a buggy that belonged to a guy in Germany that was going to come to IBB and desided to not show after shipping his buggy. He was going to use my kites while here.
Not wanting to pay shipping back home the guy told me to keep the bug as payment for my hospitality. After talking to him about the bug, we desided to give it away to someone without a buggy who wants one.
I would call the buggy a frankinbug. As this was one that the guy had that was his backup if his main bug couldn't be used.
I am not going to unpack it for pictures as it is ready for shipping. I have not seen it and it is going "as is". It is stainless and setup with barrows.

I dont care who, where, how or why, anyone who picks a number between 1 and 1000 and is closeest to the number will get the bug for only the cost of shipping. Which will be paid in advance.
SEND YOUR NUMBER TO my email address below.
You have till the 6th of July.


I will post the other stuff today.

southpadreburt - 2-7-2014 at 06:56 AM

Seems like he is a bit burned out. Jeff, you were a bright spot for me at IBB - Thanks for sharing your experience with me as I learned a lot.

you guys, even if you don't need anything on this list, it is all worth buying. Jeff will participate in meaningful ways. He will keep working hard in life and in sport...

Too right!

It is hard to think of anybody who has put more of his heart and soul into building this sport.

Yet another free give away of that buggy and the near give away of many of these items is just 1 more example. :cool:

That's as well, but for me it is not hard to see who puts heart and soul in building kiting sports...

I have seen in my decades of kiting/powerkiting, my mom and dad, Seanky Kong (Sean " the under the buss sean, kurt and linda nearly died for the sport, Rob Whittal/Noel, Chasta, Brain and Heather (the Champs), Matt Taggart, peter lynn, jeson furness, Arie, Graham Steel, Erik Bregman, Leinka, Swavek, Pollis Paul, MacJaw the Paul, Troll/Pete/Barfly/Frinkmasterflex, Rob/Loren/All the Ken(adiens), Ultra necter Chip, THE BISON, eric amsler, AJ, dave kenedy, Sarah/Rick/Quadroom/Susan, blake pelton, bobby and Brian(pauly short), jeff howard, fran and frits, Jellis, dean, corykite! Too many to list!!! Also Pets!!!

Personally and professionally the community benefits from those who give a little extra to the cause.

BIGKID has earned it. Hard working man he is!

Let it digest...kite and eat! Then Repeat!

:cool:

How 'bout a few pics of high priced items...the buggies!

bigkid - 3-7-2014 at 02:58 PM

Thanks guys for the great response, lots of new stuff. Looking for a big spender to buy the entire lot at 50% off:D

Lots of numbers coming in for the "pay for shipping" free buggy. Only 4 more days left to pick your winning number.


And thanks for the kind words.

My opinion from first hand knowledge is Zebras are VERY good. I'm telling you I'm tempted on those. Gotta see whats left from my trip to Myrtle beach again. And going back to Beaufort few days after I return from there.

All the travel I should get discounts on fuel... (sigh)

IMK - 3-7-2014 at 10:13 PM

I've got Z1s from 2.5m to 5m. I thoroughly recommend them. Great at handling gusty conditions. I reckon the Z1 on sale here is an absolute bargain.

BeamerBob - 4-7-2014 at 08:15 AM

pastorbudwine - 6-7-2014 at 09:46 AM

Hey bigkid I am just curious if there is anything else coming up for sale or if this is it. I feel bad asking but are you feeling better after all of this?

bigkid - 7-7-2014 at 07:24 AM

Congratulations.
The pay shipping free buggy is awaiting the new owner to claim the wonderful dutch speaking parakart (buggy).
the number to win was 77, the person who guessed 76 was the closest guess. Will the winner email me his address so we can ship this baby to its new home, and while your at it, tell the rest of the PKF family who you are.:cool:

MeatÐriver - 7-7-2014 at 11:02 AM

Grats 76! Post us a pic when get her together.

hardstatic - 7-7-2014 at 10:38 PM

Thanks Jeff, I sent you my info. Can't wait - I've never used a buggy but I have a bag of kites ready. Might have to get with Dino in Lodi to show me how!

bobalooie57 - 8-7-2014 at 06:20 AM

Congrats hardstatic, you gonna have some fun now! :cool2:

MeatÐriver - 8-7-2014 at 09:11 AM

Just wanted to say thank you Jeff great deals on those kites. We have a tripped planned in a couple of weeks to take a group of friends out that wanted to see what it's all about and wouldn't have proper kites for learning otherwise. They will definitely see some use for sure. Hope all is well.

Edit: Now that I think about things, it's kind of funny...... Even you getting out the sport is getting ppl deeper in! Lol :thumbup:

soliver - 8-7-2014 at 01:04 PM

Congrats, hardstatic... You'll enjoy the bug for sure!

IFlyKites - 9-7-2014 at 02:50 PM

Kober - 9-7-2014 at 10:26 PM

Cant believed those Zebras are still here ... that racing 3.2m look more and more tempting .... Someone buy it !!!! please !!!

hiaguy - 24-7-2014 at 07:39 PM

Thanks Jeff.
My "new" 1.8m Beamer finally arrived yesterday and its great. (Canada Customs had decided that it should sit on a shelf for a couple of days.)
I love static flying small foils and this has the pull and responsiveness that makes it fun. (There was almost enough wind to run my buggy with it. Maybe next time:-)

Windy Heap - 27-7-2014 at 11:40 AM

Jeff, can you provide a current stock list?


that soul fly 4.4 pro is still itching my wallet.

IFlyKites - 30-7-2014 at 03:29 PM

Hi Jeff,

Not sure if you are getting my messages but did you send the lines/handles? I'm still waiting on them, and if you could please provide tracking info.

Bolo - 30-7-2014 at 04:10 PM

My PL Hornet 3m arrived and I could not be happier.

Kite was as described, no issues whatsoever.

Fortunate enough to have had some interaction with Jeff and hope to meet him some day, seems like a stand up guy, and has a wealth of kiting knowledge.

Thanks Jeff!
