I don't think they come with the bag/harness combo. That's an option. Most opt to use their own harness finding both together would be rare I would imagine.

Obsession, who said anything about obsession? I do like my wind sports and my skiing the most. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Dark, rich, and sexy... I like it! :lol:

The OCD thing seems both a blessing and a curse. Most certainly helps me professionally in terms of preparation and dotting every I and crossing every T. I tend to come ridiculously loaded for bear to pretty much everything I do. The finesse is tuning it down to the world external to myself so I don't become "one of those guys". I pull this off "most days". :cool: No you can't check that against my wife.

Founder's Porter - allrightythen. What I used to call "liquid bread". I'm more of a IPA guy myself when I want substance (think Green Stinger West Coast Double IPA) or when I want something not quite so heavy then a good Euro Pilsner (think Stella Artois, Pilsner Urquel, etc.). In fact, a guy I used to work with had a nickname for me: "Reassuringly Expensive" from the old Stella ad campaign. :lol:

I hear you loud and clear ssayre. As a matter of fact, I was in Golden, CO just two days ago and could see the Coors Brewery chugging away! Nothing wrong with a basic beer, nothing wrong at all. Had I known your proclivities I would have picked you up a fresh pony keg right off the line.

Truth be told I usually go weeks with out touching any type of alcohol so when I do break out and drink something I do go for high end. Got to save $$$ for kites!

3shot - birds of a feather....

I had a feeling I was in the ballpark :)

BTW, had a spectacular OBE today. Not hurt but it was a classic. I had a 4M FB up in way too much wind running off handles with kite killers. I over steered upwind, came to a stop and brilliantly let the kite drop down into the power zone back the other way more or less off my back right shoulder. Whoosh! I was instantly face first on the grass about 10 feet beyond my bug sliding fast. I must have slid five more feet before my primitive brain thought to just let go of the handles. I cracked up laughing and got back on. I felt like the guy water skiing that goes Aquaman underwater instead of just letting go of the handle! :lol:

Get a GoPro!!:evil:

Back when I was first learning about bugs I had a "greenhorn" moment where I thought I could launch and zip the kite to the zenith and hold it there.
It was windy, I was nervous and had a deathgrip on the handles...
All that did was launch myself straight forward and up right out of the buggy...didn't think to keep my feet under me...
twisted left and landed on my right shoulder...all in what seemed like a nano second!

I still feel that shoulder sometimes to this day...

Glad you weren't hurt Steve! :)

Thanks 1oldkid! Actually the only part of my bod that got hurt at all was my medial malleolus of one ankle. Must have banged in on something when I hit the eject button. I had a full motorcycle helmed, high end knee and shoulder pads, and gloves. I'm thinking shin guards would be a good idea too. I was a downhill ski racer through college so I've definitely had my share of bangs, bruises, and broken bones over the years. Not looking for any repeats at 54 thank you very much !:bisou:
