AVIDSteve Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Hi, Any Avid or Kitfox folks in New Zealand? be great to link up to share tips and tricks etc. I am just getting into ML from a long career in paragliding.

I am hoping to get it down here over the next few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVIDSteve Posted February 28, 2023 Author Share Posted February 28, 2023 Hi Ibob, Thanks for that. I had come across that site but didnt find any avid info, until i searched. What a great resource and history. Our AVID is on there MMP. It is still sitting with Ian while we get prepared to bring it South. Then I will do the training on it (if I can get insurance). Think I will need to make a post about that. See who everyones insured with. it seems to be an issue. Cheers Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea why. There is an instructor right there to stop you breaking stuff and they won't even do third party for that. I'll check out avsure cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
