You are a Canada Customs agent and while in the process of trying to have a fellow arrested for DWI YOU CAN'T STOP YOURSELF from talking kiting with him . :duh:
You are playing the odds because you also kite at Sunset beach so think this should be an easy arrest and YOU CAN'T STOP YOURSELF FROM TALKING KITING with him :duh: :duh:

This just happened to ME :wow: at the Canada boarder :flaming:

I'm on my way home from Sunset and I find I'm being tested for drunk driving by a " fellow kiter " who wants to talk kites with me while he is betraying me :puzzled: Telling me everything I need to know to find out who he is and inform the folks at the beach about my welcome home ! He even told me we can meet up again at SOBB :megan:

Fortunately you blow a 0.00 when you only drink Red Bull :lol:

I'm hoping he gets a good lesson in Kite Karma ! :bisou:

Ike, we're gonna have to beef up the middle of your quiver a little! That's a big gap from a 1.8 to a 12 even if it is a depower.

EDIT: didn't notice the 5m in the middle there. Your quiver is just fine.

It's a little small for me. I'm 6'4 and about 235 with a 38" waist. I completely fill up the seat. I don't think there will be room for my harness in there. Maybe. I think I might put it on the market tomorrow. It is a fantastic buggy and looks great, but it just isn't big enough for me. It will be fantastic for someone out there.
