Why is it nearly $300 more expensive then Cairns!!!!!!!!!!
**** thats expensive.
Even bli bli is $220 per 6 months cheaper!
I'm just pissed off cause I know i'm gunna pay it
Man now a Cable ski park in Sydney is waayyy overdue!!
But $990!!?!?!?%%^
Time to find a board that works well off a cable and a kite!
Hmmm maybe the SS recoil...
I dunno, that's not too bad if you go frequently:
$990 over 25 weeks @ 1 visit every week = $40 per visit
If you live reasonably close to the park why would you NOT get one?
I heard they aren't offering memberships to kiters under the notion that they talk way to much smack and do way to many carves under the cable and f#ck everyone up.
A good SS crossover board would be anything but the Recoil. It's got the most rocker and it's a 3 stage which sucks kiting. The Reflex would be the most suited SS board for both.
A gorilla is nothing to pay for a 6 month membership! All these kite kooks are happy paying 1200 for a dangle board.... Spend that on a membership and pick up a cheap wakeboard package and you can ride everyday.
3 kites and a board is going to cost you at least 5 thousand and you aren't even guarenteed a ride!
If they are only open till may, they must be closing for winter, like they used too. That sux as winter is the time I am most likely to make the trip when there is no wind,
if i were to get membership id go atleast 2 - 3times a week = 13-20 pw which id pay for sure...
reflex or even the new darkside is the money cross over board for cable / kite
problem with ski boats = maintenance, no sliders and kickers, cheap boat = baby wake = no pop = boring after 3 sessions
come to think of it im about to drop nearly 1.5x that to go for two weeks..
damn i wish one would open again in perth.. should convert that lake near leedy, use like a quarter of it or sometthing
