Let's just be honest here about why you're REALLY bringing this issue up, even going to the extent of logging out and posting as "Guest", and relogging back in to post as yourself (which is a pretty pathetic attempt, given the fact that all forums have IP logging capabilities). It's not about patent infringement or the legality of the issue.

First off, lets be clear about something.... You are accusing me of posting something I did not.
"Every Cabrinha, Naish, Slingshot, and North in any store has one of those labels. I called and asked yesterday as I was curious to know the facts.
Also, the shop employee said that is a deciding factor on what brands they carry."
I DID NOT POST THIS, and do not know who posted, or from where it originated. Appearantly Oliver does...but I don't know. HONESTLY!
I came across this thread because I was interested in the WW rapture 2006 since seeing it while at the Gorge.
Yes, I instruct at a kiteboarding school, but do not work in retail or sales of kites. I teach kiteboarding.
I honestly posted that I was unaware of the purpose of these kite labels depicted on page 2 of this thread. I figuted it had to do with china kites or something....
Today, for the first time ever I went to inflatablekite.com and realized perhaps there is a reason for the certificate on the kite..... and perhaps why some companies can sell for hundreds less than other companies.
Yesterday I stated that the Contra was released with "prospan" and the "span limiter" bridle because I own a Contra, and bought it last year because of this inovative new technology..... I happen to recognize this technology in WW kites...
I DO NOT HATE WINDWING or BEST or whatever... I am just posting a perspective.. That is what forums are for, right?
I buy from amazon.com
I listen to mp3's
I pay attention to bargains...
I EVEN shop at WALMART from time to time.....
FEIXAQ,

I truely don't think that this comment from you is warrented. I am not trying to do anything but participate in a dialog. Furthermore, I don't think this comment is even directed at the right person.
