hey all,

I was among the bunch of kiters that had their cars broken into at leightons today. They didn't get my wallet and phone but they did manage to take off with my whole flying objects board bag containing a 7.5m 2010 naish cult with an L shaped black repair on one of the front panels and worst of all my 2013 crazy fly raptor pro LTD. The board is black carbon fibre and has one white and one black binding. Also the fins are painted pink so it is pretty destinctive. It has my name, email and phone number writen across the back of the binding which no doubt would be scrubbed out if they try to sell it.

so please if anyone sees gear of this description being sold please post back on this thread.

cheers

If only the WA government used the money it's spending to cull the big scary sharks to protect its citizens...

Similar deal happened to me last sunday at leightons, window smashed and two kites stolen. Blue and White 9m 2011 North Fuse and also a 9m 2012 North Rebel. Seems like they were just targeting the kites as sunnies etc all left untouched.

Sounds like they are organised enough to know what they are after...how about we go down this sunday, set up a car as a trap and beat the living **** out of them.

Would be very easy to set a trap to catch them red handed just need an old car and a couple of empty kite bags, could probably hide a camera somewhere to get video evidence only problem being that the number plates on their cars probably aren't legit so might be hard to track them down. Police don't seem willing to commit any resources at all to these crimes either.

Come on guys they probably had a dysfunctional up bringing the poor lads, have separation issues towards their fathers which they only knew through the alcohol driven beatings they got.

Poor poor fellas, where's your compassion....lol

Dirty fcks, hey run some voltage through your laptop...then again maybe not they might sue you and ultimately win.

Systems screwed and cops have their hands tied. Funny how we try and apply a supposed higher level of consciousness of supposed remediation potential of each human being when they have the mentality of a dog. Makes me laugh.

We've had it too good for too long,the Chinese are on the the march, batten down the hatches lads, history will repeat itself ....lol...

You guys may as well leave a wad of 50's on the front seat with the window open..

Everyone knows break in's happen at that location and also Scabs, City beach and Woodmans.. Still amazes me that there are so many victims..

I feel your pain I really do, there is a big problem with it but they still leave stuff in their cars.

I hope all get their gear back..

spoke to a couple of queenslanders up here in dongara on a kiting holiday, they said they noticed the broken glass and skipped the session, get together and sort these c88ts out , it isn't hard
