newbie

I'm going to check out kite buggies on Oregon coast tomorrow with the people from speed shop. I'm almost positive this maybe my next obsession. From the little research I've done it looks like I'll a soft sand buggie will be needed and help figuring out the ropes. Any suggestion on either topic would be appreciated.:o

You are in good hands with KBSS and the whole Oregon crew !

Kite gear is like cars. It loses value as soon as it leaves the shop. Buying used at 1st is often a good idea. If you do buy new be sure it is something you won't grow out of. This doesn't mean don't get a small kite . Just one that will serve you as an engine as well.

Welcome to the addiction ! See you at SOBB!
