Social commentary threads have been cancelled.
The trolls and pimps now run this forum.
This thread is a perfect example of how a social topic can be unjustly hijacked by pimps for the express purpose of financial gain.
It's outrageous.
And how trolls can sidetrack and sabotage a thread for selfish reasons and their own warped pleasure.
That's totally despicable.

^^^^WTF?????

Oh,,ok,,,now I get it.

Your saying that slavey likes to be kicked in the nut repeatedly.
Thats why he keeps posting death leash topics knowing very well he will be bagged out.
He loves being dominated and kicked in the nuts,,,sort of a weird forum fetish freak????
Very interesting Doctor Phillmonkey

I wear a safety leash that I keep well maintained,
so never had this problem you are talking about.


Officially OFF TOPIC :

I'm curious about how you 'maintain' a death-leash, Loto.
How do you prevent it from becoming a sh1t-leash ?
lol.
Or do you just buy a new death-leash from the shop when it's looking a bit dodgy ?
And how often should you replace the death/sh1t-leash ?
Every season, perhaps ?

Maybe you need to start another topic about safety leashes to ask this question??

As you keep banging on about this thread has (apparently)LOLNothing to do with safety leashes and is just a socially fun thread for all to enjoy.Bah Haaaa Ba Haaa
Puppet,Spacemonkey and,,well,,,,everyone saw your angle on this thread before you even thought about it.
Suck it up and enjoy life.
Start another thread about safety leashes and ask about Safety Leash maintance if you want be taught how to look after your gear.We will be happy to teach you about maintaining your gear.
Maybe we could start a new thread about teaching newbe's how to maintaint there safety gear.Might help you and others who dont know how???Might save a few injuries and keep more local spots open for kiteing.

We will all be watching the newbie tips and tricks forum for your post and will be eager to help with your questions on maintaining your gear.

Huh ?

Why start another topic ? ^^^

Are you in charge of the forum ?

You crack me up, Loto.

lol.

Now that you have succeeded in fully corrupting my social commentary thread,,,

now that you and your troll-cronies have completely sidetracked my topic,,,

now that you have utterly sabotaged my forum contribution,,,

now that you have lead it down a path I had no intention of going,,,

now that you have steered it against my will into some retarded death-leash discussion ...

you now refuse to further discuss the leash-maintenance thing you raised earlier.

Are you satisfied with yourself ?

... A discussion that could actually shine some light on how NOT to lose your kite,,,

a discussion about safe practices in fact.

Your attitude is the stuff of stupid bullys and spoilt brats.

Intelligent discourse on this forum is now broken.

Happy now ?

I dont know Slavey. I thought you were the driving force yet another very amusing and entertaining thread.
Keep up the good work.
Despite the criticism Im sure we all love your contributions.
I reckon ud be the most 'hit' poster here
Better here than on the beach I say

ps - love that "naughty boy" clip. One of the best bits of footage ever put down.

Especially Slavey.

Double negative, sabotaging a troll (albeit a poor one) is actually a positive contribution to the forum

^^^^^^^^here is another one for you then and the other safety conscious kiters out there
www.kitepower.com.au/ozone-handle-pass-leash.html

I cant beleive Im going to poke the bear/troll and ask this,,,but,,,and Im asking and being very serious now,
What do you do Slave when

(A) riding un-hooked and drop your bar, miss a pass etc?
(B) snap a chicken loop(rare but does happen)?
(C) accidently un-hook(getting smashed by waves rolling around underwater)?
(D) Need to hit your safety to flag out your kite in an emergncy so you dont get smashed into the rocks?
(E) The countless other things that can and do happen that you may need to hit your safety? I have seen a hook snap on a harness

Do you just release your kite and not care about anyone else on the beach,,,as long as your safe??

Do you have any safety releases on any of your kites????????

Please let us know if you have a better and safer option ,,that might help us all be safer and keep local spots open.

Would you feel bad if you found out that someone got hurt/killed by a runaway kite because some newbe read your advice on here not to wear a safety leash???

If you are actually trying to have a talk on safety on runnaway kites,
Please answer all of the questions above and Im sure we can all be civalized and work on safety issues so as to benifit all of us.
