Just wondering, what's the average age of members of this forum? 
 
 
Perhaps a sensitive question.  I'm just kinda wondering what age demographic were have here. 
I'm 40 (don't feel like it) and I feel like I'm in the shallower end of the age pool here.  Wondering what a lot of the ages of others are here.

Wow, Flexi may be onto something.:wee: 
Kami, there is NO WAY IN HELL that there can be any negative side effects to the noodles.  Nothing that tastes so good can be bad for you.  That goes
for BK Quadstackers as well.
 
I kinda feel the same way as Shaggs in that I wish I started kiting back in the early '90's.  But then again the kites were a lot less forgiving and
the safety systems were'nt really great and as a self taught rider my guess is I would have killed myself.      I'll just try to make the best of the next 40 or so years!
 
Please keep the it comming kids.
