Rich and I have some very exciting news to share with the group on the up and coming fall event. However I would like to hear from you the people on what we can do to make it better for you and your family. I have researched what will be open in the lines of museums and points of interest for the loved ones not wishing to be on the beach all day. Anything else? Open it up and feel free to criticize if you will so we can make this a premier event.

Exciting news still being worked out but I can promise it will be BIG!

an area for beginners to learn in without all of us speed demons intimidating them would be nice.

My wife and kids loved the indoor water park just down the road a ways by the boardwalk . O' it also had a bar and hot tub..Hint Hint.. :eureka:

Montego Bay Resort

1700 Boardwalk, North Wildwood, NJ
(609) 523-1000
Dont know time that it opens or closes.

@Chad, I plan to call that place and see if I can get a group rate or something. Anything will help.
@Donnie, tough call... how can we do this without hurting feeling. I don't want anyone to get hurt and this is why we need to have a safety meeting here or at the beach so there's no miscommunication. Common sense stuff.


Keep them coming!

Hold it in Florence so I can come.

Have fun anyway!

You never know... that MIGHT just happen

I don't think anyone would have hurt feelings. We can sector off an area at one end ,and all the "experienced pilots" who travel the whole legnth of the beach can just turn around when they get to the cones and go back the other way. I think 1/4 mile at the end would give beginners and landboarders a SAFER alternative than being amongst us. And if they feel up to it,they can come out of the safety box and ride w/ the experienced peeps. Just tryin to look out for some of our peeps who aren't as confident yet. It seemed to me(in Oct) that we(experienced pilots) kind of took over the north beach and pushed the landboarders aside. Just sayin'.....

Very much agreed Donnie. We need a spot for the land boarders and the real reason why will hopefully come to light soon. Cross your fingers on this one.

How bout we all pitch in and buy some killer wind?

do I know him?.........is his first name Carl? wishful thinkin?......

or some of the dutchies!?....

Just not too much!(like spring?) J/K I just need to grow a bigger set!

Or maybe Adam will be back?

I was already countin on him to be there. (not that I know anything ) just kinda figured he would want to be here with Rip comin and all. I wanna go landcruising w/ him on KGB this time. I couldn't in Oct. cause of my shoulder. But I'm good to go now,and I wanna have some fun!!

Donnie, so right you are! Kinda leaves the less experienced riders fighting for their own out there. We will work on that. I think it's a great idea! Plenty of beach for all types of riders, lets use it!


Kristin, really hoping that the winds will be just right, doesn't have to be nuclear, just kickn! Gotta see you going in that sweet ride of yours!

I am also thinking maybe a fun little, for the bragging rights, relay race. 3 or 4 pilot buggy teams/ landboarders . Teams chosen by picking numbers out of a hat. Two teams at a time, down and back, switch! You know,Work the details later! Bob, I know you will like this part!

Some of the other good stuff will be released in due time!

I'd be down to race! WHOOP WHOOP!!

Knew you would, was no doubt in my mind!

sand box ???? for me ????? ...... no hurt feelings
WOW !!!!
Yes ... I did have problems getting started on North beach with all pros zipping thru ..... That was my 4th time on buggy .... first time in winds above 20 and first time with more then 2 kites in air .......

.... My biggest problem was to get out from lunch area with many kites at zenith there was very little room to pass by for beginner like me .... after getting out somehow I did manage to stay away from all passing baggies .....


It is nice to have many questions answered here at forum ..... I think discussion meeting at WBB would be fun where random questions get answered by other kiters and gives you ability to replay instantly .... Let say I am wondering about Big Foot tires or something that is equality good for soft sand ...... you get way more info when there is 40 kiters in a room ......

Can't wait guys... I'll take xtra vitamin C too to make sure I don't get sick again!

Gotta ride dangit. Hope Adam can make it too. Need to ATB and get my learning on! (or Donnie's gonna duct tape my arse to the thing!)

Adam is coming??? this is news to me, as I only spoke to his Manager about coming.

We had a few emails going between Todd and Rich. But the WestCoast XXtreme / Peter Lynn is coming to join the fun only. Whatever you guys are doing for the event is up to you guys. We have no input but want to enjoy your event as a vistor / guest.

On the racing end of things, nothing is concrete for NAPKA rules, do as you please ... however it would be nice to see you guys join up to NAPKA ~ just saying!!! :bigok:

here goes my list:

1. who is paying for my room(s)
2. what is there to do at night (when coolbreeze and dino sleep)
3. must find go-kart track (coolbreeze and I have some racing to do)
4. what is your state tax rate, need to find mall / apple store / fry's
5. beach speed limit
6. zoning area(s) / restricted area(s) ... (shoreline, dunes, plants, animals, etc etc)
7. sight-seeing, i may choose not to buggy at all.
8. wind website / tide times (if any)
9. any event parties
10. where to get RockStar and Vodka

just curious why the area needs to be sectioned off, how can you progress if you're locked in. i rather yell at someone "youre doing good" and trying to pass them.

adam doesnt need his own area, he can just jump over us if not we just run him over.

let the fun begin. see ya in a few months.

and HQ Kites is picking up his lodging

OK... for those of us who don't know jack about the previous Bash's, can someone fill me in on approximately where it all takes place and about when. I'm assuming the East Coast somewhere and obviously this fall. What min. equipment a guy should expect to have to show up at an event like this, so not to make a complete fool of himself. Hopefully I'll be off the injured reserve list and have learned" buggy basics 101 with what little I have right now. I'm really excited and interested in getting together with anyone and learning everything I can without killing myself in the process. Only flying for a few, busted my ars (foot), wife's pissed (she'll get over it), and I ain't givin up yet.

What we are referring to would be the WildWood Buggy Bash. Only the greatest gathering of kite minded people in the Northeast !!!
There is section dedicated to WWBB posts on the forum - read up !!! And we would love to have you. Come as you are, bring what you have ( what you dint bring is what you're gonna need)... You will have the best time kiting, learning, whatching the pros... And then there's the infamous WWBB BBQ !!!

chris thanks for hooking me up with lodging! so nice of you guys

Windhunter, the fall WBB will be held the weekend of October 22. Some come early but most show up Thursday night or Friday morning. It is held in Wildwood NJ. Like cheesy said, there is a WBB forum at the bottom of the main PKF page. If you have any questions shoot me an email or call me at 3024806008.

Rich

Gonna set it as a goal to be ready for. Havn't got any time in the buggy yet. Nursin a jacked up foot and chompin at the bit. Local winds been better than I've seen in a while. I've been scrounging through all the post n vid's in the WW forum great stuff. Thanks

Here is the video from last fall's event! One great event for sure!

WBB Fall 2010

Chris, glad to hear that HQ is picking up the room tab, thought maybe him and Dino were going to have to race for it to see who pays!

Blind Poker run thee card stud always wanted to do this on a sailing course
Five would be cool but I think depending on the beach and wind three might be more reasonable
Each course using different skills to get to the card station
Blind meaning you get the card on top you can't pick your hand :wee:

Interesting concept. I'll put that one one the front burner and keep a thought on it.
