In need of brakes


The wind was giving it all day today, but not in the right direction to fly at the local field. Took my new synergy for a spin but the buildings around really screwed up the session. I gave up and drove to the local ski hill to test my pro 90 down the hill. Man can you really motor down the hill. Should of deflated the tires some first cuz it couldn't make it very far without biting the dirt. I think that I gotta get me a brake kit and set them up when I wanna ride down hill next time. Funny I snowboard there no problem but but between speed wobble and lack of stopping power the no more than 2 minute ski run turned into a 20 minute run from all the falling I was doing.:wee:



what I fly/ride:
19m Flysurfer Speed 2 SA
12m Flysurfer Speed2
6m Ozone access xt
1.5m Ozone imp trainer
144cm Airush Switch
152cm lib tech skate banana
MBS Pro 90
Jereme Leafe Pro 95
