Kiteboard bags
 
From the thread earlier, I asked about what kiteboard bag is best to use for traveling and in the end I got a 2nd hand NSI Deciever. On the weekend I flew from Tampa to St. Lucia on American and didn't have much problem checking it in even over weight (apparently Golf bags can run to 70# with no charge) In it I had my board, 2 kites, 2 bars, pump, harness, wetsuit and boots, almost couldn't get the zipper closed! looked really fat! Lady at the check in counter asked me how many sets of clubs I really had in there!

I guess what im trying to say is that if anybody else is looking or needing info on what bag to get, this one worked.

Lastly, some where between TPA and SLU, one of the wheels fell off, so if anyone knows where I can order a wheel, please fill me in!

Did you get some good sessions ins? I went to St Lucia in September and loved it, but unfortunately it was the off season(knew that and didn't plan to kite anyway). Its a great place with awesome people. I saw about 30 awesome places to kite when I was there.

Going to be going out tomorrow, was supposed to go out today but was way too hungover. There is a girl called Beth who runs the only kite school up on the north side of the island, but there are a few down on the south side. Heading out with her tomorrow, been blowing about 20 all week. There is a little bay called Cas en Bas that she teaches at, and there are a few local riders that help share the stoke. I believe she uses Eclipse kites and North boards.

LSUkiter: what part of St Lucia did you go to? Im in Rodney Bay

Kitespear813: not sure when I will be back, but all I am looking for is the wheel that should just clip into the housing.

In the North by all of the resorts. Supposedly it sucks in the North, but I saw plenty of great desolate beaches and talking to some of the cabbies, they say they always see kiters here and there in the north region. Most people kite in the South, I wonder if its because either thats where all the surfing has always been, or because that's where the only kite school is.
