Riding in the kicker's HPDE surface won't mark it up too much, but will void your warranty and reduce your resale value. This is something everyone excepts and there are many people who hit the features that are paying retail for their equipment. Personally, I will only live once and I'm not going to let a few hundred dollars get in the way of having fun (Especially when I'll spend that in just a few days on gas). Perhaps picking up a second hand wake style kiteboard is the way to go? Besides, this thread is meant to help people realize that they can do it, it's easier than they think, and they should try it sooner rather than later. Im an older guy( 53) an hit the Kicker at SPI and it was a blast only got a few scratches ( on me not the board )but the rewards were well worth it when you land some ! Don't be scared , visualize the best result and go for it ! much safer than Rails !!!! I just removed the fins from my 140 OR Mako . No damage and I hit it about ten times . On my way back to hood river , where is this one ?!Or still being made ? forrest Since 21 Jun 2005 4330 Posts Hood River Hick CGKA Member Wed Apr 27, 11 8:04 pm     It's still under construction. The wood surface just supports the plastic surface which isn't attached yet in the picture. holly Since 09 Jul 2006 440 Posts Hood River Obsessed Wed Apr 27, 11 9:16 pm     pkh wrote: I'd hit that! thats what she said!        Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page Previous  1, 2 Page 2 of 2   Jump to: Select a forum Northwest Kiteboarding Discussion Forum----------------Gorge / Portland / Oregon CoastFor SaleLost & FoundIndustry SoapboxCGKA  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum You can attach files in this forum You can download files in this forum
