I believe only xxtreme / libre / ptw make these ... everything else is homebuilt.
since Ruudje and Ozzy are coming to NABX 2009, we're trying to get a demo there. Provide it doesnt cost me an arm and leg to ship it.

Mood: They're ALL good ideas. Right up until they become BAD ideas.
That How to Powerkite DVD set I got had a whole section devoted to those things. They're super cool looking. Kinda have a Tron feel to them :LOL:

Mood: itching to ride!
so where do you get one of these things?
I'm a little confused on how:
1. you get in and go
2. you keep from getting pulled over
granted I've never used a buggy before...but these do look awesome. can someone build me one out of stainless???
it'd be pretty cool to make one of these with a rear swing arm and a couple inches of suspension
