Good times. The only part of the trip that totally sucked was the drive. 26 hours is so far. My ass is still trying to recover.

Ken hit a dirt devil and went 8 to 9 feet before slaming on all fours.put his shoulder aound the front when it dislocated.....was back in no time and will say .tuff guy man ,he showed me the video of him in air and hitting.and still enjoying himself . He got my respect.... http://www.nabx.net/gallery/http://www.nabx.net/upload/galle...

Yes, Ken (Evots ). got what turned out to be a dislocated shoulder and banged himself up pretty good fully padded when Hit by a dust Devil. I hope you are doing O.K. Ken.
The help he got and speed he was treated was fantastic.
I thought I heard about a land sailor that also took a nasty spill as well ?

It went like this, look at that dust devil going straight at that poor bugger. Someone get a camera, this is bound to be good footage. It WAS

TDMC96 has a great photo of Flysurfer Doing a downwinder using Ken E's Famous Flying Pig kite the next day in 50mph winds! It is Funnnnny :wee:


Always wear your helmets Children ! :wink2:

Good video Ozzy looking forward to part two

I would like to thank all the people that made my first NABX very memorable.
Here are a couple of pics but more will follow after sorting through 600+






And of course the 124 KMH run





Thanks again to everyone who makes this such a great event!

Ken

Thanks for posting the pictures so far Ken.

The Pig kite isn't as lifty as it looks with Marcus all padded up like that but we are glad that safety gear has become important no matter what you fly !
I told him not to worry, that people will offer Him all sorts of interesting stuff to fly after the wind is too much for his 13m Pulse if he just makes it out. That he will fly things he never imagined or could back home in Germany but this just isn't what I had in mind ! :singing:

I got to see all the pic's on the way home and they are great ! I can't wait to see the rest ! :wee:

Marcus flying Ken's pig has just replaced the Phantom on Ivanpah at sunset screensaver of choice for me ! :singing:

Hey gang! The pictures are great Crash and tdmc96 thanks for sharing!
Piggy is so happy! Immortalized as a power kite! :piggy:
Update on me: Saw the orthopedic surgeon and the shoulder is under observation and MAY not need any surgery! Still in the sling but the mobility is much better. The bruises are finally resolving (now I can actually see the imprint of my pants and padding in the bruise. Still a glorious shade of purple!!!
I am trying to get pictures from Krattli to post.

Ken

Haha ! I should rename my nick to Mr. Pink now....is that still possi ble by any chance? I almost forgot about my pink powerkite.....anyone got shots of my black trashbagkite?

Unfortunatelly my old cybershot had dust behinds its lense, so all my pics look kinda dirty..so I am looking for any pictures of me actually kiting with my pulse. Thanks for your help guys!

Oh and tdmc and bladerunner: will I see you tomorrow at GP? if so ill bring my laptop to share...

Dude ,That's just the last couple of pics left on card before clearing . I did not even post the "LOAD'S" of great pic's and videos I caught of everyone.I think I even have one screaming next to the Dutch crew as they blew by. I have not had time cause still catching up with things I walked away from before leaving......:singing: I'm glad we all had a great time and next time everyone will listen about both sides of the coin regarding the winds. Sorry a few didn't have gear for winds that reached 70 mph Thursday night . I really had to tone it down with almost flipping my daughter in tandem land sailing. Still had another personal best record beat, even a tandem one till I twisted the pole hookup beyond repair. I short stepped all the way back home cause I didn't want to leave ! Just went too "FAST" :wee: I will post more soon ! who has the Group shot ?.....Ken , Love the mix for music choice....sounds appropriate !:smug:

Guys,

Does someone has a high resolution photo from the group foto ? ,..I would love to have it for printing out and hangin it in my house,...

If someone has one please send it to: fampotters "add" home.nl

thanks in advance,
Ozzy

Chilese just posted some pics of group shots but Rob or someone will have more .Shame it's not in just one post where you have to search forum for any pics. Maybe everyone can build the gallery instead of searching site and forums related to NABX.........Want to say " HAPPY EASTER to everyone and already counting the days till next year Thank you all for sharing pic's and good times on the Playa ! :bigok:

there's one in the gallery of the web site! Put it there before i left the playa.

I'll get you some more, but our web master is off in the mountains somewhere in the EU!

aoxo~soon~come~!

.......who got lazy and forgot the banner ?
