Hello guys and gals im new 5 Years, 5 Months ago

Just wanted to pop my head in and say hi to everyone. I started kiting 4 weeks ago with a 2.5 pepper and im totally addicted now, bought another 3.5 rage the other day to help pull my new buggy along. I bought the buggy coz i cannie figure out how to go the landboard very well and i got a shot of a buggy and was like "wow".

I must admit this is an expensive hobby ive gotten into but who cares. I will give up my luxuries and drinking habits (yeh right) for the money to buy more. I've already noticed that i had to give up my markless legs for a lovely huge set of bruises but who cares the thrill is so much better. I will say thanks to Jim who recommended that I started wearing a helmet. Yesterday I was out on the buggy, big gust of wind came and yep the buggy flipped (onto my head) I swear I felt my head rattle with the helmet on. So although I'm new I have a word of wisdom already

.

so thats my HI!! good speaking to ya all !! Chrissy XX

Ah, the long time lurker has posted

I never saw your "spill" but my mrs saw it and said it looked nasty. At least your ok and still looking to get out again.
There are links on here somewhere to weather sites, have a look at them before you go out. Northerlies are a no go doon the vicky, gusty and just no fun whatsoever. Ideal conditions are anything from the south IE: SW, SE or just southerly (straight af the sea) @10+mph.

Better to risk breaking your neck than to never look up at the sky.
