Well, I took the new TSR 3.6 out today for the 2nd time. Wind was probably 15 mph. I learned the definition of three different things:
1) grass stain (more like "grass electroplating", actually)
2) road rash
3) ass kicking
So far the kite is great, but of course I have no reference for comparison. Lots of fun! I can see that scudding around is only going to last so
long before I'll want a land board or something. Can't be waiting 6 months for ice-covered lakes!

Welcome to the forum. Lot's of good people here. I like to hear about the ass kickings and grass stains.I got going so fast on dry grass I thought my
shoes were going to melt they were hot. As far as grass stains I barely had any pants left.Watch what you wear and be safe.

I came home one day with grass stains on my shoulders and the hood of my sweatshirt. Neighbor looked at me funny and I just said "flying my kite"
Skidding around and body dragging is so much fun. One of my old posts
Skidded on my butt the length of a soccer field this afternoon. Winds are 25 - gusting to 35. Had blast getting drug on the grass with my 2.5 beamer.
I am one big grass stain head to toe. so much fun. Some litle kids were wacthing me and just laughing.
