Is this "Power Kites - How to Buggy" DVD worth the money, or a waste of time?? I have noone close enough to get help from, so, in that case, would this be a help, or not?

Thanks!!

Save your money .. I have one I can send to you. It will just cost a couple bucks to send it back to me when you are done. Thats about all its worth is about $2.

I wondered?!?! Thanks dlish. I would enjoy at least taking a look at it and I'll get it back to you pronto.

How about this....could such a harness as this one be used in buggying (and static flying), or is it only suitable for waterboarding?:

Or, does HQ make a good seat harness??

I don't have the buggy yet, but would like some "relief" while static flying, some staniding and some sitting, as though in the buggy.

And, while I'm at it, I've tried searching on ebay for a quick release mechanism. Any suggestions on where to purchase one, and/or what to purchase?

Thanks!

I will get it out to you tommorow before I leave. Take your time with it. No rush. If anyone else wants to take a look post up and and this could turn into a pass the video thread.

I think I will take you up on your thoughful offer dlish. I too have seen this on Ebay and have thought about buying it. Sounds like it stinks though. If you say ok I will send Lobo a u2u with my address and get the pass along started.

What's to know that we can't give ya here for free? I mean sit down. hang on! and try not to giggle like a little schoolgirl

Its packed up and I will drop it in the mail in the morning.
Lobo send it to beachrights when you are done please.
Beachrights U2U Lobo with your addy.
Enjoy!
I gotta finish packing. Less than 17 hours left for me. I think I'm going to officially be the last person arriving. Sure feels like it even if I'm not

for $2, I'd like to give that video a look. Beachrights would you send it my way when you are done? Let me know when you are ready for an addy. I'm sure Dlish is fine with it. We've dealt with each other in the past. No hurry either.

Send me your address. I'll be glad to forward it on to you. I won't keep too long.

Lobo :singing:

Hey Dlish... you ever buggy at Crows Landing?

No, do you have a good spot there ?

I got it this afternoon! Is that dlish on top of it, or what?!? Got it out before he left for NABX.

I'll get it out to you Monday.

Dlish....thanks for not letting me spend my money on this....I would have been very frustrated and upset with HQ! I guess I expected a little more. There is no talking whatsoever on the video. I thought there would be someone personally trying to show and give instructions.....you know, kind of like an "instructor" at "school".....I think it says on the cover "Kitebuggy School Video" The first half of the viedo is what HQ should send, free of charge, to everyone who buys a kite from them. It's just simple set up and flying of a kite.

It's not that it's a total wash....I reckon you might pick up something, but, I think I've read/seen all that it has, and much more, just searching and reading on the net.

I not usually negative, but, if you're interested in seeing it, just get on the mail list....don't spend your money on this one. I won't keep harping on it.....just, Thank You for letting me know not to spend that much on this one!!

beachrights, it will be on the way soon. Let me know if I was a little too harsh....may just be grumpiness...'casue everyday I'm getting to be an "older farter" Ha! Aren't we all?!?!? Heh Heh

Lobo :singing:

PS - I hope I saw all there was on the DVD and didn't miss the real heart of it????:puzzled: If I did, I'll repent and sin no more! :evil:

Thats what I said its only worth the amount to ship it. Glad I could save you some money. I guess since they never talk in the video that makes it multilingual :puzzled:

beachrights, it's in the mail Monday. It should see you soon!

dlish89, You were absolutely right. Thanks again for the advice and the loaner. I gotta go look around the forum and see folks thoughts on NABX!

Lobo :singing:

What a snooze fest! I can honestly say I learned NOTHING from that DVD. It really could have been a good instructional tool if it had any sort of instruction other than how to make a larks head and info about the wind window. Quite disappointing coming from HQ- they make great kites but lost it on this one.

Thanks to Dlish and Lobo for passing it along. Beamerbob is next- put it on before bed and you will sleep like a baby:tumble:

Whew! Good to know I'm not just some crazy newbie without a clue as to what a good instructional DVD, that actaully costs you money, should include! Ha!

That DVD is just a joke?!?!? :puzzled:

I put many hours in with the buggy last week. I feel like I know enough now to be able to learn something about the buggy.

Bob.....I think you might as well not even open that DVD, and just send it right on home to dlish! Ha! Or....did you watch it, and not even realize you did...ha! You've got a whole lot more experience than the DVD does!

Lobo :singing:

Too late!- Bob its coming your way today!

I'll give it a look and send it on its way. It can't be THAT bad can it?

Probably not....we'll wait on YOUR report....:wink2:

Lobo :singing:
