Boneti has a serious case of "Small Man’s Syndrome." ~D

PS Nice work presenting all the evidence. If you ever get tired of that internet nerding job, you could make it as a PI or even an Attorney.. Wink

I feel kind of responsible but couldn't help calling a spade a spade. If I thought it was going to cause you a headache then I wouldn't have done it. Hopefully I won't have to blow you to prevent you banning me.

I will NOT be buying any Wainman gear because I don't want my money subsidizing kites for this bozo (Bonetti).

Don't worry, Waiman won't be around long enough for this kid to get any more gear...

Chris, gimme a break... You really don't think team riders with bad attitudes can't effect sales in a local market? This Bonetti character has crossed way over the line of "just kidding around"... Still think this is funny? Come on man...

Sorry...gotta respond: What a hassle and pain to deal with PKH!!!! You shouldn't have to deal with this shit. John....dude just log off and go away if it's such a gay fag deal to you. You're an absolute train-wreck.

I just sat and watched it all unfold and was thinking "dude has no clue".

I'm sure the next 50 new members will be brilliantly disguised as "DogBoneInYourAss" or something truly original but FOR THE RECORD don't let John Bonetti get you fired up about Wainman Kites. Wainman has a distribution deal with KiteNaked who is ultimately responsible for who pimps their gear.

Local Gorge Wainman rep Brian "Chooch" is a wicked pissa east coast transplant and class act talented rider who would give you the shirt off his back if he thought it would make you a better rider. Demo with him....you will not be dissappointed.

Okay, I'm pretty sure I've got this all figured out...

As we all know, Andy Kaufmann did not, in fact, die in 1984. Rather, he faked his own death and went underground to escape the pressures of fame. About ten years ago he resurfaced as "Ann Coulter." This provided him a venue for his unique brand of performance art for a good long while, but eventually the American public turned on the Republicans and put Democrats back in charge of the White House and Congress, pulling the rug out from under Andy's shock value schtick... Incidentally, Andy had been growing tired of the Washington scene anyway and thus...

...has again resurfaced, this time as a semi-pro kiteboarder in Southern California! Pure genius! Andy, as one of Phil's many "gay, cocksucking butt lovers" (he's a bottom, btw), I applaud this, your latest artistic incarnation! You are truly a genius, and the world is lucky to have you!

semi-pro? Did I miss something in that video that whats his face posted earlier. I never met the guy but seems a little troubled to me. Seems like PKH was trying to do the kitenaked guy a favor more than anything. I'd hate to call that factory rep and ask for a warranty sounds like he doesn't give a shit what people think.

Wow, just wow. This has really gone too far. I have started to reply to several of the other “posts” (and I use the term loosely) and stopped. I really didn’t want to feed this kids need for attn. Quite honestly IMO Bonetti has crossed the line so far that you can’t even see the line anymore.

What you write on the internet represents who you are and has consequences in real life. Bonetti needs to grow up and realize this. Hopefully he does before those consequences has too much of a negative effect on his life.

I actually feel badly for Chooch. He is a very cool guy, great to chat with, and I feel a great representative for Waiman kites. I would love to have him as a rep. Janet has flown the kites multiple times and says they are great, and most people that I have talked to have said the same thing. I just can’t believe that when made of aware of the situation there isn’t a larger response from the dealer.

Lets look at this a different way, do you think Robby Naish would put up with 1/10th of this crap from one of his riders? It would put me off any brand if one of the riders for that brand, or a spokesman for that brand acted this way. I can tell you for damn sure if Pepi acted this way, I wouldn’t be shopping at 2nd wind.

All I have seen recently out of Bonetti is behavior that is selfish and reminds me of a small child throwing a tempter tantrum. I was very disappointed when I heard that after progressing out of the first heat at BotG he just didn’t kite in the second one because contests weren’t for him. I feel very bad for the next person inline that he beat out that would have advanced and been able to participate in the stoke of the competition. Maybe at some point he will learn that the world doesn’t revolve around him.

It is too bad that Phil has to deal with shit like this. He runs this great forum without any monetary compensation and it takes a lot of time and effort. If you don’t like the forum, don’t visit the site. Coming back and continually spamming makes it look even more like you are just a small child throwing a temper tantrum.
