PDXMB: We need some of your kiting swagger and smartass posts as the forum is getting a bit tame. Put down the mountain bike and pick up the board and kite!
In honor of PDXMB:

he's moved on. Total motorhead. Must've incurred some serious head trauma somewhere,
possibly dropped on his head as a baby and longing to recreate the experience.

Actually, just last night he made an armed citizen's arrest of some crackhead who had trashed monkeyboy's parked car in front of his house. Re kiting; I think he's just getting too old

The guy is LGBT. I know he was hitting on this Asian guy named Jeff. Most likely he lives in S.F. NOW.

This is the problem with nwkite these days... LGBT? That is your idea of a burn? Wow dude, hard core. Everyone should put there preferred gender pronouns in their signatures so nobody gets offended. Yeah, im LGBT. Now run along and put your hand down your pants when Sauvie is blowing 10knots.
I dunno guys, after a decade I am just kind of over it. A huge part of why i started kiting in 2002 was that it was rare, dangerous, difficult and at times, plain old frightening. And it was about the people. There was what? A couple hundred kiters? You knew everyone at the beach, and everyone was kind of cut from the same cloth. It was EXCITING and cool. Now its just kind of boring..and waaay too fucking crowded.
So yeah, besides detaining people at gunpoint in my underwear, i have been dirt biking alot and started racing motorcycles. I even went dirt biking with pkh last weekend. Phil on a dirtbike is kind of funny (and a little sad). We did have a big laugh about the cleanup party we had on the spit, getting utterly trashed, trying to burn trees with gas and diesel and i recall grinching some wasted dude into the gnarliest face plant evee. Lol. Good times..
Anyways, in honor of all the original kite crew, the hijinks, and all the hillarious threads on NWK.. I present the most classic northwest kite video ever made. Produced before everyone was a gopro hero.

Somehow I knew what wakes him up. LGBT always works. Sorry dude, I know you were not hitting on Jeff. He might have liked it though.

Shout out to all the "old guys" last weekend was OMRRA's first race weekend. I snagged 3rd place on the podium and won a trophy. Blah blah blah, big deal. But you have to ask yourself... how many 44yo guys are winning trophies? And no, not fucking "participation" trophies that celebrate mediocrity, an actual trophy for your performance.
Kind of a little lame, but I was pretty stoked and my son's thought I was a hero.
