I was about to ask a similar question, but adding a couple of points that

in Europe.
Thanks in advance

Due to the lowered demand and reduced sales, I am going to run an end
of season sale on my Taboo discus launch glider (I need to blame
something for the reduced interest in my HLG kits, so I will blame the
end of season. On the other hand, people say that Denny Maize is doing

Thank you for your comments. I have some good ideas now, and I will be

I have a complete new (Factory sealed) 28 feather cut bow that I
don't need. I'd like to sell this one and get a larger one. If anyone
is interested I'll sell it for a few bucks less than anyone else.
E-mail me if you're interested.
Thanks,

extremely successful pilots that campaign only one TD glider. As an example, I've
