Shaan,

You using chemicals answers a lot of questions brother (you cool mate)... and what happened to the seventh best kiter north of the bomb bay hills?

We await your response

Hello!

Congratulations all and thanks for coming and making it a great event.

Technically speaking Shaan is still probably the second best north of the bombay hills!

So who would be first and third Adrian?

Ha!
You are right. He cannot call himself the 2nd North of the bombays. He was beaten by Jamie Barrow and Gavin. So that would leave him 3rd at best or 4th or fifth or sixth north of the bombays.

yawn! surely there are far more interesting conclusions to draw from that set of results than my predictably lame-ass performance. i will give my full analysis in due course. until then, rest assured that technically speaking i am fourth equal (with my campervan mates) in the partying discipline, completely surpassing all other kiters in this country regardless of age, brand affiliation or geographical limitations.

Completely meaningless break down of the top 24:

Boards

Underground 17
Slingshot 2
Decay 1
Airush 1
Dvnt 1
Naish 1
Cabrinha* 1

Kites

North 8
Naish 5
Slingshot 4
Cabrinha 3
Wipika 2
Airush 1
Gaastra 1

Areas

Auckland 7
Ch-ch 6
Nelson 5
Tauranga 5
Brisbane 1

(*I could be corrected here but I saw Jamie on a Cabrinha board all weekend?)

Best I can tell about half of the 24 derive at least part of their income directly from the kiting industry...

DK

Bored at work Decay?

So now I know what you're doing DECAY while I'm slaving away at the workshop...

Thanks to all the girls who made an effort to come down and enter. It was good to ride with you all! I hope that next year wherever it may be we will double the number of women entered again. (2003 = 4, 2004/5 = 8 ).

And hopefully next time Delphine will be free to enter. Thanks again, you and the guys did a great job with the organising!


Happy Kiting

Su Kay

Hi Decay,
I rode both Underground and Cabrinha boards during the contest.

Speaking of what people were riding... did anyone see Osama riding Hazel?

H

Take care my brother not take the camel urine out of the relationship between a bearded man and his humped love.
I was there at this event in all my glory but needed to conceal myself amongst the many unwashed I was ranked there amongst the top 24 now this may give you a chance to work out who the real Osama is and if you mess with my woman again there will be big trouble
A big Fuckyaaa to all my followers

where is the leader of bathing abusers these day - we miss our best brother lee -(but not much)

lee was last seen in the pages of the rodney times throwing his weight behind some tweaker councillor's idea to fine kiters.

Oh behave!
Or I will teach the lord king of kiteboarding "Dave Edwards" how to type, read, and log into this kite forum.
Just imagine....



Good On Ya Dave,
Great result!!

unfortunately, there is no trumpet function or we would have already had the benefit of his communication i'm sure.

Osama Been Kiting = Dave Edwards

HA HA HO HO! only blownaway could come up with a gem like that!

Perhaps Osama been kiting might be Armie!?!?!

HA HA HO HO! Only Groper could come up with a gem like that!

who really cares... asides from his first highly entertaining post he has failed to back it up with anything asides from boring drivel about his lame camel.
just another nameless moron
may a Giant Eagle land on his moustache!
f#&^%#@you
ps if you really want to read more meaningless drivel check out thrashers www

OK, back to the serious stuff!!!

I heard that the Warehouse just picked up the distribution of Best kites... is this true?

Will they be doing the same buy one get one free thingy?

How's brother Lee about this?

Hello... with a name like that and given your previously posted drivel it would be hard to take anything you have to say seriously
more drivel i'd say

Clearl a no-wind day in jafa town for the big rigs of dangling to be joining in with all us lo-life clowns attached to our keyboards, eyes glued to the screen, waiting to hear from Osama again....

It has to be HIPPY..

Take a look at the following video clip and it should explain why..

Then it could also be Big Nose..

This footage was taken over the weekend at the Nats. 9 megs

Right click on hippy. and download the video file.

brilliant! that is the funniest shit i have ever seen in my life- i have similar footage on my phone and have emailed it to earl (the owner of the raven)

BUT HIPPY IS NOT OSAMA!

For sale.

your all a bunch of tweakers!!!

A decay of modern civilisation turning the true north into a torched underground hell pond of evil.

For anyone to actually believe... and indeed create a full video montage examining these so called beliefs, can alow only one conclusion: the cats from the North partied beyong any previous horizon delighting the multitudes, when coverings in mud no longer called. For these entertaining sideshows (during the trumpeters unlikely ressurection) we shall be redeemed but not with unjust speculation - but rather true "gill clearing" sessions at the worlds finest ocean locations.

I salute all the organisers for creating a platform for our many joyous moments of this weekend!! Well done. no one could have been so funky spunky and hilarious as our lovely Delphine while telling fuckwits to piss off during the finals. A truely memorable moment of the entire contest!! (not the mention the Murell disssing briefing!!! and again at prize giving where he won a supreme rogering from queen Delphine herself, well done shane...)

forget all that other shit. Decay it matttered not whose board you rode as i had a fair go with your kite porn inspiring twin tipped ride. As she sucked liquor from my aching muscle(s) , our lips momentarily brushed - our scente of salt, liquor, lemon and Tequila entwined - a good boost!!

Thanks to all the girls who made an effort to go down.

PS we fully agreed with Su our teacher...
It was good to ride you all! I hope that next year wherever it may be we will double the number of women entered again.

And hopefully next time Delphine will be fre for to enter. Thanks again the guys did a great job with .....

If that dude ain't Osama I don;t know who is. Ban the brother, Shaan, ban him now. This site is just too entertaining.

Ladies,

Lee (Orewa) just told me that Osama's Steve Tindall, he's apparently been scoping out the kite scene for some time using Kiteforum as a platform. God help him

Now look at the two of them.... with Best kites under their wing... there'll be no stopping em for sure.

Where everyone gets a bargain!
