haha, it's a joke, to get you to try it and the onion and patatoes taste disgusting!

Tridude, ah, oui oui. J'aime parle le fracais tojour dans le toilette.

(Tridude, ah, yes yes. I like to speak French everyday on the toilet.)

Eh, lol. I can't talk in french that well but I can understand 50% of it when it is written and lil bit less or equal amount when it's spoken. Also, I can do a perfect french accent.

Cheers!

He has the 8, 10 ,and 12 meters in stock. Awesome kite for snow and landboarding! Just google Option Kite! If you parlay voo even better!

Yeah, that's one kite that's peaked my curiosity, seem to get it done quite well, just never seen one in person. Would love a go on one though.

Pablo,

Sweet kite indeed. Porcher marine sail, very stable, excellent lift and float, a quality kite throughout. Known for its abiility on snow but it was also sweet on the landboard! DaVinch and I did a deal and he has it now (X Air 10m) with his review coming! He has a pic of it on his website! Quite stunning in the air I must admit!

I've seen some crazy snowkiting vids with close to a minute hangtime using them, they've got to be more than capable, I know they're using complete nutbars on the vid to demo them and the pilots have mad skills, but still, to get that sort of air the kites have to be up to the job. This is the main thing that's sparked my interest.

Hope some day I'll bump into someone that'll give me a go, Always looking for quality gear to recommend someone. Still need a go on a Psyco III as well.

I have only had the Air Evo out a few times so far (all light wind days). So far, I'm impressed.

The build quality is top notch and it has a very simple bridle system. I'll make sure to post a full review once I get to fly it more.

Any chance I could get added to the list for the Pansh Ace? I'm in the market for a new kite and would love the opportunity to try before buying.

Not a problem Wind-Dave - you are after Sthrasher.

Just curious on the status of the combat and/or brooza

I currently have the Brooza and I'll be sending it out to Sthrasher sometime this week.

Nice! I will be waiting. Did you have fun with the kite? Hope so.

Yep, it's definitely a nice kite Shipped it today to ya.

cheers,
Stace

Combats will be in North America within the next couple weeks, once the Brooza comes home one will go out, just have to figure out what size would be best. They're a wicked kite. Had a blast flogging the 4.8m Prototype down at the SOBB.

GulfSandEater - I'll get the Ace in the post for you this week, hopefully in the next couple of days!

Thanks!

Woot!

I tried to get some video but my helmet cam turned off at some point. I did capture some of me zooming by with the 12.5m though - check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5SfY9SJZr8

Looks like a great place to buggy khooke. In California flat Real estate like that means your in a cemetery :o

How long is this list going to run for? Can I get into it too?

WindDave, shoot a u2u with your mailing address as you are next in line for the Brooza!

I got the Brooza a couple days ago Nice kite. I have only flown it once but It was nice. Compared to my other kites I would say it flew soft. Build quality was strong in that sence I am sure a kite like this would last a long time. Meaning soft as easy to fly very smooth in the air. It was alot faster than I thought also. In all Imo a good engine! Thanks Pablo. I will be passing after the weekend to the next lucky person.

Khooke,

Did you happen to get that Ace in the post? In fact, can I expect it tomorrow so I can have it for the weekend?!!! :puzzled:

OK...a little excited to get another kite in the mail to try, in case you couldn't tell. hehe

Did I get dropped off the list somehow? I backed out of the blade loaner but still want to be on the list for the Ace and the Brooza. We are actually starting to get some wind these days as well. Incidentally, if the blade makes a second tour, I would like to be on the list. I didn't get a chance to fly tridudes last weekend (nor did he) since it was an HQ event and that wouldn't have been cool. So keep me in the loop if possible.

Amen BBob, plenty of time to fly the Blade. Anyway, I was having too much fun with that Montana 3!

Brooza 5.5m

Archkiter,
SThrasher38
BeamerBob
Gilligan
Baluk
??????

That was the list so far, I'm guessing Wind Dave has been inserted between SThrasher and Gilligan. No idea. It'll still get around to you BB for sure before it heads home.

I sent a u2u to Sthrasher38. Assuming I'm still next for the Brooza. Am I still on the list for the Ace? If not I'd like to be:D

I guess there must be some good reason to mix up the order. I feel lucky to get a chance to try different kites so if I get passed over, I can deal with it. I can't see where everyone lives so maybe it needs to not criss cross the border so much?

So sorry for the mix up. I have been busy an haven't been reading up Anyway I sent the kite to wind dave. Sorry Beamer Bob As for the Blade I don't want to send it back Haven't got her out yet but man is it pretty!

Wind-dave did you get the Brooza yet? It should be there by wen.19th! Let us know and have fun.:saint: Pablo & Beamer Bob Sorry again for the mix up Should have asked first But Bob it will just be that much more fun when you do get it.

Yes, it already came today...that was fast - thanks man:wink2:

Sorry about the mix-up BeamerBob. I'll go fly it tomorrow and try to get it in the mail to you on Wednesday.

I flew it today for a little bit even though the winds were a little light at 7 - 12 mph for a 5.5m. After making a few new knots on my handles and shortening up the power lines I had it up and flying. The kite flys smooth and predictable and almost turns as fast as my Profoil. The Brooza seems like it powers up a little slower (maybe because of the smaller vents) and gives you time to react in sudden gusts. I flew some tight turns and loops close to the zenith and while jumping and I still got lifted pretty good even though the winds were light. Overall it's a pretty nice kite for the money, pretty neat design also. Hopefully I'll give it a go with the landboard tomorrow.

Thanks a heck of a lot Pablo and DaVinch for making something like this happen.:D

BeamBob - coming at ya Wednesday.

Is anyone going after Beamerbob gets it passes it on to Gilligan, or is it time to return to the great north?!?!!!!!

I'd have a go on the Brooza before heading back north, if possible.

By the way, Khooke, if you haven't already shipped the Ace to me, maybe it should go first to the next on the list. I'm not going to be able to fly for the next two weekends due to travel.

Wnd Dave,

Don't rush on my account. Make sure you have the full experience of the kite before you pass it on. We are just starting to get some afternoon winds here. And then I have to match the wind with my schedule.

The best way to match the wind with your schedule is to; Stop what you are doing when it is windy and go fly! If I ever wait the wind is gone before I get to fly. So impulse flying is what I do.:saint:
