I saw this deal on http://www.backcountryoutlet.com/outlet ... -Kite.html

Pink Bularoo for 50% off. So, I went bought two pink kite for the heck of it. I'm a Nemesis HP guy. Why not use these kites for back up, or teach my friend or family with.

I thought I share this with the kiting community.

Going to the Bay.

Wow - I have never seen a brand new kite for 50% off. Free shipping, too.

I remember hearing that the bularoo's had leak issues. Anyone else remember anything about this?

These Bularoo's were showing on http://www.steepandcheap.com at an even cheaper price point.

Man, for that price... I'm with styler, should just grab one on principal. Even if it is pink. ;)

Apparently pink is only friendly with hot kiter chicks and manly, sandwhich breathing men like ramsey.

Aerosmith has a song about pink, titled "Pink"
I watched a surf movie last night, and the gung ho surfer dude talked about "being in the pink" with the big waves he was riding, describing the sweet spot of the wave. Yeah, pink can be manly I guess.

In Australia, pink IS a manly color. Heck, the cement trucks there are pink. Big Ozzie tough guys wear pink shirts. Maybe they should market them there.
