No Longer a Buggy Virgin!
WOW!
I had the distinct pleasure of meeting and then kiting with Angus on his home turf of Jekyll Island today. What a stand up guy. He is everything that
I thought he was and more. What a great ambassador for the sport.
Not a great wind day but I had a blast none-the-less. I started out on my board with the 3m Scout. Wind was quite "snatchy" or as Angus says,
"lumpy". No hesitation when he suggested that I try the buggy. I was on it. Did I say "WOW" already?
Unfortunately, rain moved in and ran us off the beach after a quick kite pack. Kite's on the kitchen table drying and I am stoked!
Thanks Angus. Look forward to next time.

Yeah, Angus let me try his bug too. My life hasn't been the same since. Buying and selling kites like crazy. I don't just go fly kites much
anymore. I go buggying. He doesn't have to try to act that way. He is a dealer because he's just as passionate about this as any of the rest of us.
That lead him into the industry. He does it because its fun, and that makes him good at it. We can get you some more buggy time at Folly in another
month.
