these are the bags i was talking about,

They're nice... but don't look like roll-ups.

Are the Prism "speed bags" (up to 7 kites) roll-ups?

to be honest i dont think for one minute that it matters that they say *insert fishin' brand here* or it says radsail HQ or prism, the fact is most muppets think that kites are fishing rods anyway, hell at the moment i use a hocy stick bag for mine that has slazenger megacat emblazoned all over it but the lemmings still ask if i am going fishing. If they are gonna get nicked then they are gonna get nicked

You're right...

I'll be likely to jump on any well-built, well-priced ROLL UP bag, be it for fishing, kites, hockey, or fencing.

whats the deal with the roll up bag then ?? is it this seasons must have accessory ??

Fri Oct 10, 2003 3:09 pm

Yes... I saw a French guy with one, and now it's doing my head in.

Not really... I just wanna be like Dodd. :^o

what an old skool stoner with no shoes ??

come on "roll-up" bags are for ponces and posers :lol:

(problem with roll-ups is all those clips and getting the whole thing open just to get one kite out.
what you need is a MLD bag unfortunatly only from the US at the mo.

Up here, zippered ski and snowboard bags are the business. I use a ski bag - cost next to nothing, can take serious abuse without falling apart and holds around 10 kites, which is plenty - I almost never fly more than 3 of my own kites during a session anyway.

It also has no ski manufacturer logos printed on it, which is nice. I get enough of the "Heading to the Alps?" questions as it is. :mad:

Roll-up bags are impractical for kiting. Always full of sand & snow, have to be opened fully to extract one kite, etc etc.

yeah, you remember its that wet white stuff comes 2 days a year-the whole country grinds to a halt :evil:

We don't exactly get a lot of sand either.

Now... I fancy a winter fly over the Witterings. Wonder if you still have to sell your own granny to park there out of season.
