High tens for Dangler who repaired a huge tear on my 6m North in less than 12 hours so I could get back out and ride the nice swell at Rufus.

You da man.

Something tells me Dangler could write a memoir on saves - be it a repair or at the launch. I still recall several years ago trying to launch from the event site amongst the 8 thousand other kiters.

I came straight from Alaska where a crowded launch meant the two of us were ready at the same time.

Finally got all geared up, things assembled and the nerve to wade through everyone and get in line for the launch circuit. All nervous and on edge but trying to look sans-kook I setup one of my lines inverted. No problem. Dangler gabbed the kite and had the lines swapped in no time, the launched me and said have a good session. - I did.

Thanks for the awesome repair! Not only did he fix my kite at a moment's notice while I waited (total repair time from rip to repair = less than 2 hours) but he also shared a beer and talked about mtn biking the whole time! Sweet, now I have new mtn biking buddies too!

If you left a kite with me, or need my help, get it by the end of the month! Cheers, it was an awesome Summer, heading south to see my mom.
