Disappeared with a bunch of ppl's money and loaner kites.

And the kites which were sold promptly fell apart due to (not even) shoddy build quality.

Twunt's of the highest order.

This is just what I was told by somebody who was shafted in the US.

Krijn does have some pictures of the sorry construction practices tho.
