reply to hugo’s statements (Rambo)
Hi Kiters,
Two days ago I was told that Hugo Ljungberg (Rambo_Johansson/Johnson) is writing and posting some statements on this forum that were purely meant to attack and slander me on both a personal and professional level. Hugo is someone I always treated with respect.
After reading the translated content from his postings, I contacted Hugo to discuss his comments face to face. We were able to meet at my house here in Cabarete. Hugo apologized for previous and recent statements posted, and indicated that he would not continue his marketing strategies in this manner. I have no negative feelings towards Hugo continuing his active role for EH, but it is important that propaganda does not destroy or warp the truth.
I would like to take this opportunity to show some photos that were taken in China (11/2004) of the Prototypes from the recent kite that is posted here from Hugo.
I designed and made these kites in October/November 2004 in an R & D sample room in China. I designed the kite in sizes 5,7,9,11,13,15,17 & 20. In Western Australia, December 2004, I tested and then improved the kite design as well as the bar system seen posted on this forum.I started working for a Sail maker in 1986, by 2001 I started designing water kites and made the technical kite designs for several companies, now am working exclusively for Bestkiteboarding.
Some people in the sport of kite boarding have built up a strong side of politics, which in my belief is very wrong. Kite surfing is a sport for enjoyment and I think we all should support it in this way. When I travel and work in factories I have a good, amicable and professional relationship to other designers and people from other brands, also to people who are representing or practicing the sport and I think this is the way it should be.
Cheers
Peter
