Hey Spacechimp,

Why are you giving Siliu so much stick, mate ?
I thought his posting of the topic 'sad story' was fairly courageous of him to do so.
Kitecrazzzy did the same in the recent past with his reported kitemare at Pelican Point.
Both of these kiters are injured, man.
Show some fucn sympathy.

It's good that folks are bold,
not afraid to reveal themselves,
showing that they are only human.

We all ****-up eventually with kitesurfing.
It's just a matter of when.
Mostly it's just bad luck.

Maybe you've been fortunate so far.
Maybe you're not charging hard enough.
But be careful you don't tempt fate...mate.

...c'mon man, we've had this before...

This topic is now banned.

hey sleek, i see you have lit a few major bushfires again this summer. someone should confiscate your matches

so pimp your arse like you usually do

This is Sir Rowdy, he wears bindings because he can't keep the board on his feet with straps. Poor Rowdy, needs booties to protect his feet. How about you get some straps and harden the #&%^ up Sir Rowdy. *just kidding, I like bindings too*

I love that video, and I love the people that have a cry about it on utube... harden the fck up.

What are you saying, that wakestyle with a kite is not hard core? I beg to differ, but that's just my opinion. Perhaps I just need to harden the **** up.

Hey Greenpat,

Nah mate, Kitewake style is hard core too, but quite different to that performed behind a boat. Some kite stuff is made easier by the loft of the kite and the upward angle of the lines giving softer landings, more airtime to pull tricks. If I see one more kiter throwing and claiming a Raley with the kite at 11 o'clock I'm gonna barf Other kite stuff is more hard core like L3's etc cause it's pure kite style.

If you have ever seen a wakeboarder pulling a Crow Mobe off the double up or a Slim Chance from same, thats sick due to the height they need, the speed thay are traveling, the precise timing and the height they drop from with gravity working it's full magic. Tragic for knees.

You don't see too many older (late 20's, early 30's) wakeboarders who haven't had multiple knee and shoulder reco's or who have dropped out of the pro scene all together.

I just prefer to watch behind the boat stuff, it's more fluid and has no dangle. Stylish, smooth, fast and demands respect

But thats just my opinion for what it's worth, and that aint much

Good winds,

Kitehard is spot on.

All of you bitching... Harden the fck up.

I swear I nearly pulled the cable off the pulleys at Base 3 the other day

There was a boat once that could get me out of the water. Made by Lewis for tournament waterskiing, had a 5.7L chev block V8, some fancy two stage double barrel carbs and could pull me and an 85kg mate out of the water at the same time with us both on single slalom skis. I'll never forget that boat, it was kn HARD!

Was it one of these?

Hey kitehard
Ever heard of "air" tricks wakeboarding? or cable ski? looks pretty similar to me if you do it right, and the techniques are really similar.
p.s. who the hell are you trying to fool? you are gonna get way more hurt doing a "wakestyle" kitelow whirly than a "kitestyle" strapped up L3.
kiteboarding could be core.

yeah u do if you think an L3 is gonna hurt ya. chances are if you posted 2587 posts you would think that because youve never actually been outside to find out.

Hey ROWDY,

Of course you're right, L3's wont hurt if you do em on the east coast in 15 knots , most of our core crew in WA do em in 25 to 30 knots, and yeah, anything with a kite loop in it at that wind speed will put you in hospital if it goes wrong.

Most of the east coast crew that came to the Gero nats a couple of years ago had to harden the **** Up after they spent the first 3 days crying that their 5 m kites were too big and too fast. LOL.

Here's cheers to WA's finest, 25+ everyday and going hard. Respect

Good winds,

To kitehard.
Who gives a **** about east or west coast. We all kite, we all like kiting and we all want to see progression occur in our sport. I am from teh so called east coast, and yeh we prolly are a bunch of pussies. But who cares, aslong as we are all loving the stuff that we actually do. I am coming over there this year just to kite, and hopefully meet some laid back people who dont wanna break my legs oro something cause im from over here.
