Found kite near skyway
 
Found kite in the mangroves near the skyway. It had a few holes in it, all bladders punctured, all rings cut off, and someone took a huge sh1t right in the middle of it and wrote ONE PUMP SUCKS on it.

PM me a description of anything and I'll send this kite to anyone.

It will arrive in many small envelopes.

Has scott been riding Fuels again or was it Danny this time??

Tom Stock 04-09-2008 05:40 PM

No, Danny tried option 1, request new bladders.

That kite had ALL new bladders that I installed about a week before.
Hence, the sheer frustration and the decision the kite was worthless when half of them went flat.
I was just dead sick of it at that point.

It's not like I didn't put a bare minimum of 8 hours putting new bladders in that thing (at least 3 times over the last 3 years).
Changing them all out just to have 3 go totally flat was the last straw.

I don't cut kites for absolutely no reason. Heck, I still have some kites from 2002 and a 13m Fuel from 05.
Maybe I should have just sold that thing for 20 bucks. But I was beyond pissed at that point and whoever I sold it to would have just bugged me complaining about it. It wasn't worth it to keep it.

hey i salvaged a $10 ring so it's not a total waste.

Skyway Scott 04-09-2008 09:48 PM

I kept two of them and some hose clips.

Hey, you didn't try to get on the Wiki yet, did ya'?
