here is the kite chair getting ready for 2012 nabx event .now lets see what rip brings to the table :roll:

nice wheels, will they fit on your buggy? Cause I bet those little front casters are going to wobble like mad at speed.

Aw hell yeah! Lookit that thing!

they wont even be on the ground ,this is just the start of the project the front will be completely changed to a singal wheel (freewheel) with pegs for steering .

Exactly !

Won't you need something like the "3rd wheel " you had on it last week as well?
EDIT Clearly you are going the route I pictured . You posted at same time I guess.

That thing makes Oregon / Washington beaches a whole lot easier for you as well NO?

:wee:

we need to go to 72nd to test them out.
S

need a seat belt and all my gear for those back roads, or maybe we ask to use the golf coruse :dunno::singing:

Dude that is wicked sick! I can't wait to see that thing in action

That is just so cool...... awesome!!!!

Looking amazing, dirtslide!

Someone tape some footage! I've been dying to make a video using the song "Passenger" by Deftones :D

This would be epiccccc.

i got something for you ... chair racing it is. your chair is sweet.

i have a set of 17" disc wheels coming, perfect for wet beaches.

see you this weekend

i know i will never be able to keep up with you in the buggy so i had to come up with somthing where I may have a little advantage .got a ton of wheelchair skills now so i thought use them. now Im looking forsome weights to hang low from the axle for a bit of lower balist. Im sure we can beat my old record that we set last time. hey coolbreeze dont you think these wheels will look amazing on your apexx ,you should pickup a set they are only 1800 bucks:cool2:

HOLY SH** !!!!!!!!!! someone is getting an A+ for creative problem solving.

Only $1800....... what a deal. I don't think I could get that past City Hall, the dept. of mergers and acquisition's. Looks good though.

CB

hahaha ,I found mine barely used for 1000 so i went for it .always wanted a set but didnt want to sell the house to get them :bigok:

Ok, that is bad-ass. Cheeers and good winds!

awesome Bro! You are the man!

DS....

That.
is.
freaking.
AWESOME!!!!

There's NO way I'm missing NABX this year!!!

Soo... how many sets of tires are you gona burn off at NABX this year?...

well boys we had it out today on the beach and on grass at Gary Point and holy sh#t you can ride it just like a buggy and steer with the front wheel .Scud has video of it and maybe he will post some up. anyway looks like it is going to work just need some fine tuning and then practice the hell out of it, maybe even have a few crashes to remember the old times coming home with roadrash from knee to ankle .as far as wear i hope they will stand up ok but they are sandrail dune buggy tires and I should be able to find some in vegas it is in the middle of the dessert.

here is a better look at wheel and tire.

DS this thing is out of the park. We need some speed trials of this thing.
Oh and best of luck with the road rash!!

Hey dirtslide over here we have a buggy pal from up in the tropics who has
a major case of MS.
If your chair mods are documented is there a chance of a copy so that i can pass them on to Rob.
He usually gets around in his motorised chair towing his buggy.

Mods may save him lotsa grief.

all he needs is a set of fatso wheels and a freewheel then just add a set of pegs to the freewheel atachment and set belt and you are ready to kite your wheelchair . just a bit scary compared to the kitebuggy but wicked fun none the less .let him have a look at the pics of my chair believe it or not that is a standard wheelchair uder there somewhere

As promised video of road test. High quality version uploaded.
S

DS, you should have joined us at the beach and the other location today

lots of running space + good winds, 7m day.

Cool video guys, We need to see DS fliing though! But a great insperation man best of luck with this and other projects.

You are truly inspirational!
