P-air has been having leaking problems lately with his 10m Bularoo and has run into trouble way off shore due to these leaks. he has been writing about this ongoing saga for quite some time, and I thought it would be important for me to bring to other Bularoo owners knowledge the fact (if they haven’t noticed themselves) that there is a serious problem with leakage on the kites, due to the fact that the plugs are really just a tad small for the valves.
If you have run into this problem I recommend that you check this post out for the solution.
I was looking around for an interesting place to go and surf and play and I came across a place in Florida called Stiltsville. Maybe you are familiar with it, but this was the first time for me.

Originally Stiltsville was built or imagined during the days of prohibition and Al Capone and rampant gambling.The law was that gambling was allowed provided that it was located a mile offshore. Stiltsville is located just over a mile offshore.
I think this would definitely be my dream place to go for a couple of days and when the wind is down I could sit and ponder on the wonders of the human mind.
