Been reading a few of the older posts written by WAXMAN and from the sounds of it he should be a pro earning the big bucks.... advice on tricks, surf boards, wave kites.... blah blah blah

Here is WAXY in action..... as I said.... stick to what you know - "back rolls and F-One kites"

Nice shot, that was a few years back now, one of the very first Sling Shot lunacy boards and a Borrowed Kite, I was ridding REVs back then and had just started to learn how to pop and roll.

I hope KBM see the pic, they might just put me in the next issue..lol

You seem to be making a lot of claims on my behalf,

Offering an opinion, or giving advice from things you have experience with or have come across is not a attempt to talk it up. There is not one post i have made claiming to be a great kiteboarder, but i do have a lot of experience and take the time to comment on posts and give advice and give my personal opinion on. In the past i have written reviews and helped a lot of people. My opinion varies from yours, you are going to have to get over it. Call the wambulance or wip up a batch of frownies, chear up.

caught with my pants down

People that know me have seen a lot worse...lol

Im fairly shore that kite was a Pink and white bandit 1 7.5m to bad its not in the shot. That lunacy must have been at least 3 rides old, all ready missing a fin, oh well ss did replace them so cant complain.

The water was still fairly flat but the wind must have been 20kts to get a 100kg(at the time, maby more) out of the water riding a 129 board on a 7.5m kite.

I all ready Know but instead of spilling the beans, should we play a game and see if others can guess. Could be fun

WHO IS THE REALL AH..........is he a kiter that lives in Adelaide WA, i think not. More clues to come, stay tuned.

OK first clues,

1.AH is a alias, he is on other kiteing forums including this one under a different names.

2.If offering advice and giving my opinion makes AH all like "this guy should be a pro earning the big bucks" I tells me that he has been close to this level but is now all bent out of shape after watching people he has ridden with make it. He thinks it should have been him. Now he still tries but is still always the bridesmaid never the bride. but is still a sick ridder.

3.We know from AH's posts that he is a bit of a Slingshot Pimp, but at what level? The answer will surprise you and his team

4.this one is easy, he lives in Adelaide but doesn't call this his home. But is it just Adelaide that he doesn't call home or is it Australia?

5.From his advice on where to go and kite in Egypt we can only assume he has spent some time there ridding.

6.His kite of choice is the Fuell, and has spent a lot of time talking to SS about the new kites, waiting to get his new ones.(most people would just talk to there local distributor)

7.What does he have to do with redbull, it used to be his avitar?


More to come......

Tommy69, Is that you AH?

if not then why do the only 2 posts you have made recently make you look like his shadow?

Or maybe Tomy69 is Me hell anyone with limited posts or anyone that has just joined could be me or AH or anyone. Maby there is only a handfull of people on this forum with a **** load of different login names.

I should get a new login though so i can bag, cabrinah kites, and metro riders more, but why bother thats something waxman would do anyway...lol

you need to belittle someone on a forum.

you need to research previous posts of this person.

whats up with that?

your behavior is weird - to put it politely

Never understood why someone has to be a world class kiter just to give their opinion of a product. Is there a rule that says you must be an expert to give your opinion because I'm pretty sure plenty of people give their opinions on other sports or products without being an expert. You also have to ask yourself, is he giving an opinion so pro riders can choose their gear, or the average rider?

I'm starting to like that pic, it CRACK's me up...lol.

I was going to contact AH but cant find his number, I think its on his website, anyone got a link?(Not the SS Link, i have one in my shed).

Seeing that the boys don't seem to want to play now because of possible disclosure, i might take the time to upload some pics and tell you a bit about the real Waxman, my local scene and places i have kited. I will update as i have time, feel free to share similar experiences and positive comments, once i get a few posts up. I can't promise good spelling,so you may have to bare with me with that but i promise there will be some funny stories and good times allong the way.

Ok, kiteboarding for me started back in 2003, i decided to take a 4 month holiday from work and take my pregnant wife on a holiday to the greatest part of Australia WA. Sold of my XR6 ute and got myself a 4wd loaded it with camping, surfing and fishing gear and we were off.

This holiday was the first time i had ever seen kitesurfing, spending some time traveling around Margret river and up to Pearth we got some great conditions for surfing and being at the beach. One evening there the wind picked up and it was on, there were windsurfers everywhere, i then noticed the kitesurfers, i sat there for hours watching them and knew that i had to learn to kite.

We spent a lot of time in pearth just living the life enjoying our time off, i purchased a restored 65 mustang to cruise around in while we were there and spent most of our time at the beach, waiting for the next time we saw some kitesurfers. The more i watched these guys the more i wanted to give it a try. Unfortunately my holiday ended before i got the chance to give it a go, i received a job offer i couldn't refuse in whyalla. I thought that was it that was the last chance i had of learning to kiteboard the dream was over. I didn't know what Whyalla had in store. We loaded the mustang on to a truck, loaded up the 4wd and was home bound to Whyalla SA.

To be continued.....

Cripes, we not only have to watch videos/photos of every arbitrarys' session these days, (even beginners sitting out front of the waves sessions), but now we are subjected to life histories as well.

No one cares .

I had some PM's sent to me with some interesting comments, people assumed AH was Waxman. I can assure you that is not the case, Ah has been used as a alias on seabreeze for quite a long time. I had a link sent to me of a old post from AH from back in 2008, and guess what AH's posts and loyalty did not lie with SS. I just copied and pasted the whole post but can give a link if needed.

SO WHO IS THE REALL AH

if anyone else has info on AH and don't want to post, just PM me with the info and i will post it keeping you anonymous. Links to websites, pics etc, lets name and shame AH

Lets start the kiteing season with the chance for all of us to give our opinion, share our stories and bring some stoke back into kiteboarding forums. With out the fear and harassment of these nameless faceless people.

Hey Boys,

Sorry - you'll need to take this offline .. go have a beer together to sort your differences out face to face.

These forums are about helping each other, sharing the stoke, not trying to ridicule each other/name & shame!

Kiting is a small community, so lets stick together - the guy you argue with could be the guy who saves your hide in the water some day.

Thanks,
Laurie
