Is he still the closet electic pump user but I must admit on the occasion I used it, it worked great

Jeez Thomo You should know Steve hasnt got time to sit down & write up gear reviews that let us public in on the features, advantages, usefulness, functions and limitations of new stuff that hits the market
Youve gotta have a job to have that much time on your hands

Seriously NN - nice summary - youve convinced me

Got one - love it - I was an original electric pump knocker,
but that was those half arsed coleman jobbies.

Heard the slingy ones are having a few probs but the naish ones are awesome.

hey thomo...i would have put a review in but i had forgotten that i actually owned one!!! its been that long since i used it and not just because it hasnt been windy....it does seem to like nonikkers car more than mine for some reason??

anyway they are a great thing to have. only problem is the looks u get when u get it out of the car(ie the "ur such a girl for having one of those" sort of looks).however that is usually replaced by smiles and "can i have a go" when u actually use it. of course ur gonna get some flack for be a slacker for using one but i find being called a girl only makes u want to kite harder and prove them all wrong!!(and i WILL prove u all wrong one of these days)

$249 for a kite pump, **** me that would want to be the best blow job you've ever had for $249... I think I'll stick with my regular pump for a while...

i think its worth every cent
i missed out on a few sessions last summer becasue i got heat stroke manually pumping the kite up... almost to vomit stage...
plus milehigh doesnt have to help me anymore...
i never quite had the strength to do the last few pumps on the leading edge... i had to use all my body weight to pump it and i look stupid doing it (sort of like doing push ups balancing on a kite pump)
im so weak

I think maybe you should call that 'pump stroke'

An electric pump makes your wrist go limp.
