YES! Ethan has been dethroned by the chickendental irishman! But give me a break with this hardco__ Gay-Bay riding. Afraid of a little swell? Some of us CC...
will do Holly, she should be on this list but I think as she's looking for a job, owns a jimmy lewis and doesnt want to buy a full suit I'm not sure she is ...
Finally I owe an apology to all the cc riders for saying they were panzies, and to Jokem for saying he sucked and Miguel for buzzing him with my kite. For a...
I just got back from myrtle beach... i miss it already :) While i was there i took my second kiteboarding lesson. It was awesome, and the guys were great. I...
Hello Mike, in my honest opinion getting some more lessons is the way to go. You'll get to crash someone else's gear and have them point out where you're...
Holly, you kick ass....... ... swell? Some of us CC folk have been ocean riding all yearround. And get a real job you cubicle dwelling armchair employee....
Mike, I wouldn't buy a Best kite at this point, only b/c it could take a couple months to receive it. You don't want to miss all the prime riding! I'd suggest...
mike, i am in your same situation and i just picked up a kite from real http://www.realkiteboarding.com/ i got a 2003 flexfoil 2 12 meter for $300 and it came...
Definitely, pick up a used kite, or one of last year's models, and save yourself a bundle. Also, pick a mid size kite, say at 12, as that will be good for your...
point to note on used gear, plenty of bargains to be had but buyer be aware there's a reason someone selling it. Check it carefully before handing over your...
What's up folks? O.K. so I am one of the newbies here. Really haven't kite boarded yet but I am going to jump in with both feet. In 2 weeks I will be...
If you can, try to buy locally. With our crap weather, most of us have gear with little to moderate use and therefore little to moderate UV exposure. I would...
I know I'm not a regular poster on the list (I do read most of the digests), however, I would like to point out that when responding to board messages if you...
didnt see the original message, but from the subject "kite swap" sounds like a great idea to me as well. I have a bunch of gear I want to get rid of, all in...
Not knowing American law very well and in light of the new guy I saw launch second hand gear and experience an immediate failure (that fortunately resulted in...
I hope it's not that bad out there. The thought that someone would sue over bad gear that they didn't check out is appalling. Well, I hope it never happens....
First, you can bring an action against anybody for anything. Recovering any money is a different story. Generally, the sale of used "items" in a noncommercial...
Dennis pretty much sums it up on the used gear vs. shop issue...there has been an opportunity for kiters to have individual liability coverage through the AKA...
IMHO that insurance was worthless anyway. It doesn't cover YOU, it covers damage you might do. If you read the letter reprinted on NEKA it states that the...
Dont get me wrong Dennis, I wasnt going anywhere with this. People outside the US have an idea, rightly or wrongly, that the US has something of a litigation...
I would have to dissagree with you Dennis on two points. Firstly the two claims were brought by non insured, non AKA members against the policy. The AKA...
I'm always very surprised at what is consider 'hazardous' or 'ultra- hazardous'. Both in terms of gross numbers and percentage, I have to believe that...
So is skiing, 3 deaths I know of this season but no bad press ... From: "jimbocanniff" <jimbocanniff@...> To: <neks@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Tuesday, May...

P Nothing you said changes my opinion. If the claims were groundless or whatever their stance was then why did they pay? and then cancel the policy all...
A few points to note Dennis, I'm an AKA member for 3 reasons really 1) AS PART OF my membership I got insurance. I did not take out an insurance policy 2)I...
