New to the east.


My wife and I recently moved to Lancaster county Pennsylvania from Boise Idaho. I was close to the Camas prairie and attended the Snowkite Soldier event the last two times it actually took place.

My wife and I are planning on attending the upcoming WBB, but I have a dilemma. I have kites and harnesses, but no buggy or landboard. I'm not really close enough to any good buggy locations, so purchasing one doesn't fit as far as the use I would get from it.

My wife is content watching and exploring the area in non-kiting ways. My question is, are any of you kind souls willing to rent a buggy or board for that saturday. I'm planning on joining the NAPKA so I'm kosher that way, but don't want to head out unsure if I have access to any wheels or relying on demos.

I have a couple years on skis, but should get accustomed to a buggy or board fairly easily.

Joey

I would gladly loan you my bug while at lunch and during the day while I'm hanging out....There are also a ton of people who will do the same...Its a great bunch of people.

I know that some members that own kite stores are making the trip this year with some demos so....

I think joining NAPKA, bringing your wife and hanging out on the beach will be great for the two of you. It's a great event and an awesome beach to buggy on so...........! I will see you there, you wont be disappointed. :bigok:

Hey, thanks for all your offers to borrow and test gear. I look forward to meeting all of you in a little over a month. I won't be there the entire event, but if I can do anything to help out while I'm there let me know.
