Looking through the locked forum on the dog issue, there are good points from both sides...
What this comes down is that everyone needs to back AWAY from their computers and chill, get on the water and have some good times and enjoy the people, scenes, dogs etc., that all make this sport so nice...
If you have a dog OR kite, be responsible for it and the damage it may cause. Leashed or Not.
Mr. Bonetti is flying Wainman Hawaii rabbits courtesy of Kite Naked. Let him know if you want to take one of the Rabbit kites or Blunts boards out for a spin he wil always be happy to help out. Don't pee on Bonetti's Wainman's.
Suggest the West Coast kite scene chips in $$ and picks up a couple of the inflatable Sumo Suits so people can finish these forum feuds at the beach.
No one gets hurt, the issue is put to bed and the winner of the Sumo throwdown gets bragging rights!
Shake hands at the end of the day and enjoy a cold one!

I was thinking the same thing....Bonetti was being crazy and even emailed Phil to tell him he was a fag....what great person to represent your company!

This post is not to go into the details of the BS that is went on. If you want that, go read the other post. The forums (BAK, Ikite, NWKite, Kite Forum, etc....) turn into a feeding frenzy at times which EVERYONE feeds off of.
We all get excited from lack of wind and sometimes say things that are probably not appropriate. I would guess this is the case.
Thanks for the feed back.

Chris I respect you're trying to do some damage control for Kite Naked but Forrest nailed it. Jon crossed the line from opinion to disrespectful without even understanding the damage he was inflicting to himself, KiteNaked and W-H. That's Jon....he just doesn't 'effing get it and for him to say dogs trashing a kite is the owners fault etc for not coming after the dog owner is funny. Have you ever landed or launched his kite before??? The guy is VERY particular about how you handle his gear and has no problem voicing his opinion.
BTW, Brian/Chooch gets it....fantastic guy always ready to demo W-H. He distanced himself as fast as he could because common sense prevailed. Shawn Richmond gets it....one of the coolest and most humble guys to ever hit the Gorge as a W-H ambassador.
Your solution is a Sumo Suit Battle Royale and let's all shake hands. What about an apology for your employee and his actions? Maybe Jon steps up and posts a "sorry man, bad day" and I'm pretty sure it will all be good but calling people fucking assholes, fags, small dicks, pussies and stupid doesn't really bring the love. Re-read his downward spiral and tell me his rants were justified?
Also, no need for Sumo suits to settle this. NwKite has some colorful people but the Gorge is one of the most chill and laid back places I've ever been around with plenty of good vibes and cold one's constantly rolling from friend to friend.
According to your website Kite Naked received kudos and the W-H contract from doing a fantastic W-H demo day in Sherman Island. Cool! Congrats. How about rolling North in June for our Gorge Demo Day and I'm pretty sure you will be met with open arms, cold brews, good wind and good times.
Best of luck with KiteNaked.
Cheers,
Ken

Everyone loves a good fight. Even if it’s not real. That’s why WWE has more viewers than any sport on the planet. Bring out the sumo suits!!!!!!!!! I want to see a fight for fun. Maybe a fundraiser for KB4C? Bonetti could set it up if you let him back on the forum. Bonettie takes on all comers in the sumo suit. I would pay to see that!
Put Bonetti back on the forum it’s fun to see what he may say next. It’s not real just like WWE! He is just a young skinny kid full of hot air.

and submitted, and submitted, and submitted, and submitted, and submitted. LOL
I thought my RSS live feed was broken or something. Bonetti started like 7 new topics, all with the same post (see above). Whatever..it was good for a laugh although I'm sure Phil wasn't chuckling too much having to deal with it while at the office.
on the bright side, there is now nobody on the forum that is throwing down harder than you.

Ken,
Kite Naked & Wainman Hawaii would love to come to the Gorge for the demo days and I am sure the folks are like the NorCal crew as well - Super chilll. Send me some info. Shawn will likely be around as well for a nice show.
***
BTW...John is not an employee of Kite Naked. John is sorry, I did talk to him and there is a little makin' up to do from his side (maybe alot). He would express the same if able to go on the forum. I am not sticking up for him, though keep in mind he is stuck in Los Angeles 50 miles from the beach...That alone will make people blow alot of "hot air".

Chris it would be great to have you up for Demo Days and meet more Norcal amigos. June 18th through 21st with Slider Jam, Sandbar party, Demo Days etc. Very good times booted, strapped or strapless. Contact the CGKA via this forum and they will get you dialed in.
Respect to you for stepping in to clarify.
Now, .....3-day weekend coming....nice winds predicted....grub and brews on the Sandbar...good times on the water everyone.
Cheers,
Ken
