Bono,

Thanks for the gr8 deal on the ION and noone thinks you are crazy for selling it. Like you said, each to their own...

So you have decided you are DEFINITELY moving to Germany? Pretty cool... I'll have to visit with my Czech friend, we were already planning a trip in about a year to the Czech Republic!!!

It was cool to meet you and hope to see you at EB this Saturday!!!

Toby!

Great buy w/ the ION.. I really think you are going to see a major progression immediately.

Is this area a Flexi ripe spot or what??

Wow... I felt like I was going w/ the trends by picking up a Waroo.. now I feel like a outcast, sideshow freak.. ha!

Default new ion

The new ion looks awesome...Bono takes VERY good care of his kites....can anyone say OCD? jk. seriously though, I MIGHT let Toby right it... :wink:

in the meantime, hopefully it will give me a quick learning curve and I'll be out there riding with the big kids soon. (I'm really getting sick of the backside. I'm too paranoid to play out there yet..) when is it gonna blow from the other way???)

Saturday morning. Dawn Patrol. Get up at 5:15 am, charge if buoy is 17 or above. Get to north Skyway by 5:45 to 6:00 a.m., on the water by 6:15 or so. That is my plan.

The early bird almost always get the east session at the Skyway. I am not afraid to say it and give away the secret, because no one ever gets their asses out of bed anyhow.

I rode the ION today, so did Bryan L. until the wind died, then a nice long walk!!! I need a few more knots before I can make up my mind as to whether I like it so Saturday will probably be the test.

Amber, what do you mean you will 'let' me ride it??? I bought the darn thing!!! :roll: :P :twisted:

Eric, don't bother telling her to wake up at anytime before noon on a weekend...it won't happen...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...while I'm riding!!!
