All good light hearted fun and i'm sure the bws crew are having a chuckle too but be warned, i have flown the 8 & 10 m, well worth a demo and then comment.
Here's my 2 cents worth,

just checked out the form myself, seems good value, but the call to join 'team ben wilson' sounded a bit too gay.

Its not on the kites.... it is on his own face
I saw him do exactly that in a secret section on an old Slingshot video.
But hey everyone becomes famous some how.

Disclaimer - I actually recon he is alright anyway because he didn't actually swallow his own pee.

that spec sheet leaves a lot to the imagination. i think they should provide more detailed product info before they ask you to fork out $1k.

what does this 'undertow' bar look like?

the old try before you buy i agree team bws marketing ploy is a bit limp wristed but the verdict will be on the kites performance not if you have matching shoes and handbag

hope his kite design is more user friendly than that fkn movie viewer thing. have tried 3 different computers with 5 different browsers and it just jams up.
so i have seen him and his mates doing their poksy road trip about 15 times now and the fkn thing jams as soon as they actually start kiting. grrrr.

back to youtube.
