My First SOBB


I have been fortunate to travel the world and attend kite bashes in many countries in Europe. This here SOBB rates right up there with them.

Big up our American cousins who looked after us, I'm not gonna mention names as I am afraid to miss out some. Two I have to mention, Buggy Camp Managers, Sean and Eli, you did an ace job dudes, giving up buggy time to sort food etc. Without you I would have starved on the beach...lol...Fat kids need feeding!

I met many new faces and forged new and old friendships. I'm glad to say I had no negative vibes toward my product I fly. I had more people asking what is that! I am glad I could share some of my knowledge with guys who want to tune and trim kites. I wish I could see and hear the discussions going on in sheds and workshops during winter.

I am a third of the way on my homeward journey, but I leave with nothing but good memories and moments oh and lots of sand. Let's hope customs dont bother me to much about the sand!

Keep the stoke and good winds to you who are just arriving!

Glad you made it there and back. Nice to meet you. Quite a bit of fun actually. Its just too bad there wasn't better wind while I was there. I have to second what you said about Sean and Eli. They sacrificed alot of time while I was there to make SOBB work.
