Also kick in a 20 every now and then. I find this is a quick way to stack away funds. However having just had our fourth ...

my 2 bits.
As a progressing learner I'll toss my hat in. I started with a 3.5m 3 line trainer; this thing has gotten a LOT of use. Any flyable wind I was out there. I still use it in a heavy wind land boarding (the third line is great for bails). However, I have started flying my 5m more and more. It is an old ...

House Call?
Can I drop one off on a drive by? I actualy have 2 that need some love. One is blown out right at the tail.(Not the tail seam but close.) The other is a slow leak, I have not gone to deep into what is wrong with this one.
I'm just glad I have now learned that repairs are just up the road.
