My "Macho" Libre (hurry up WWBB!)
It has arrived and been tricked out with extra wide and padded back axel, front fork gopro mount and of course, a removable beverage can koozie.
Now... how the hell we are going to get this beast to the beach or all the way to the Shalimar is beyond me!?
No kites left

You need a nice custom rack on the top of your car like Todd! It is just an old bike rack customized to fit the buggies! Glad you got your buggy,
can't wait to see it in action! See you guys soon!

You have a trailer hitch right? Have Donnie weld you up a rack. But I've seen his racks and you may need to beef-up your rear suspension!!!

Mine fit in the back of my Honda Civic sedan with the axle off. Pain in the ass though. I even had it in my Mini once, but there wasn't a lot of room
for anything else... like driving.

Hey chud, nice ride. I have a 2010 7m frenzy too and am still not sure if I should get a 9m or 11m. Also, do you like your 2011 frenzy (9m) a lot more
then the 2010? What do you think?
4m accessII 2006?
6.5m Method + Turbo bar 2011
5m, 7m frenzy 2006,
7m frenzy 2010

We are trying to not take it apart each time. I'll have to check out the custom hitches to figure out how to keep it together when we take it places.
Tried out the 12m FS S3 today too. Would have been great to take it along The good
news is we finally figured out how to secure it with bungee cords to the garage wall.
Cosmo - as far as the Frenzy I would say between 2010 and 2011, the improvements they made do make a difference, the 7 and the 9 fly about the same
and turn very equally as well. I had also flown a 2009 11m Frenzy at Tug Hill and it had about the same power as the 2011 9m so they definitely upped
the power a bit in the process.
However, in flying the Speed3 today - WOW. What a kite. I asked my fiance if he would swap out his 9m Frenzy for a 15m Speed 3 and he said he would do
it in a heartbeat. More of a gentle giant. Plenty of power even at the edge of the window but it does turn MUCH slower than the Frenzy. Power comes on
smoother than the Frenzy too. Yes - gentle giant is the perfect description of the kite whereas the Frenzy I would characterize as a cannon/slingshot
burst of power.
Good luck in your quest!

What kind of vehicle do you have? Maybe you can Donnie (Weldngod)weld you up something! He may be able to help you out.

Lets get some sand on that buggy. Isn't it warm there yet? Sure like the way you put the cover over the axle, it looks sharp.

Todd has the right idea for sure. Racking the buggy outside is the quickest and cleanest for the inside of your vehicle.
