I am selling my Naish Thorn 134 for $350. This is a great freestyle board, very nice in the flat water with tons of pop. Send me note if you want to demo and I can meet you at IOP or SI. I have ridden this board fairly hard but it is still in pretty good shape, does have a couple dings on the tail, but still rides great. My email is magillco@yahoo.com

Yeah, I got a line tangle on a back loop, and couldn't get back to my board. It was last seen on the left side of the sandbar, moving out to sea. It's a 2010 Mako 140, blue, white and orange, my name isn't on it, but I don't know of anyone else riding that board around here.

Anyways, if anyone finds it, I'll buy ya a beer or give a reward or something.

2008 north vegas for sale. It is a ten meter kite. Kite+bar and lines= epic freestyle session! I am selling because I need money! make me an offer. Kite has no repairs and is in very good condition.

Steve Schafer, died couple of days ago from a fatal shark bit while kiteboarding by Stuart, Florida! He was attacked by several sharks (maybe Great White). Is this the first shark related death for kiteboarding?? Definitely hits close to home because a lot of local kiters were just kiting there this past weekend for the Jupiter Kite Invasion. RIP Steve Schafer...keepin his family and friends in my prayers.

A big Congrats to Trey and Brandon. Trey won the amatuer division! Brandon took home third. Congrats guys. Nothing like taking some hardware home to Charleston. Charleston was well represented in the competition.

I have a 2008 Cabrinha 12m Convert kite and a Carafino board I want to sell. Both are in excellent condition. $625 for the kite and $275 for the board. Kite is complete (kite, lines, bar and bag).

This is in response to the recent incident where a couple of kiters needed to be rescued by Sullivan's island fire and rescue. The situation: NNE winds, outgoing tide, rain, strong current, cold water and air, couple of inexperienced kiters decide to launch at 28 and if not for rescue would probably be dead.

SELF RESCUE is part of kiting. If you can't swim in then you shouldn't be out there. It's your responsibility to not to place yourself in a position where it's impossible to swim in (1 mile… Continue

This is from the Windsurfing Group:

(Apparently the tie down straps were cut while the car was parked under a house in wild dunes)

"Ricky Lear lost a Naish SUP from the top of his van last night. The board is a yellow and wood grained Naish with mast track and a small crack in the nose.

Call Ricky at 568-1429 if you have any info. Thanks."

Since he was a kid, Gary Young, 2009 ‘X’ Games BMX Freestyle Bronze Medalist, has been defying gravity, hanging in the air twisting and turning on his bike. Now he is taking his love of extreme activities down under the sea.

“Snorkeling was really like the gateway for me to get into diving.” said Young, 26. “I started snorkeling a few years ago and it really sparked my interest. I learned about sea life and hanging out under water was a new thing for m… Continue

I want to make a slider to set up around 28.5 or out on the sandbar.
Does anyone have any experience in making one?
Does anyone want to make one?
Anyone have any reason why we shouldn't try making one?

I'm thinking first of just a little slider like the one in this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJY1QywjL3o&feature=channel_page

Or maybe something with a horizontal area for a slide?

I have some plywood boards that i wouldn't mind tearing up on a cool slider also...
