this morning a bit before 4am i had my van stolen in front of my place. tried to chase them but they got away, 30mins later they did a break in with van at Bushland beach then ran into a chemist with van after.

Got the Van back at 11am (pretty flogged and crashed out) they left it broken down out bush 50kms north and following gear was taken from the car:

2013 Green Ozone Edge 17m
2013 Blue Ozone Edge 11m
2013 Yellow Ozone Edge 9m
North LTD 69 with Tectonics fins
Ozone racebar 27m lines

Non of the kites were in bags.

Mystic warrior harness large in red
Mystic warrior Harness small in yellow

Dakine fusion harness grey

few safety leashes

If any of that stuff pops up please notify us and/or the Qld Police under Police file number#

also who ever sells a kite without a bag, that'll hopefully give potential buyers reason to be suspicious.

hope u get it all back.

At least you're giving Lachlan Beed a break. Bad luck though.

Have you considered the thieves ditched your gear in the bushes on the way to the robberies.

Marvin - I think Towradgi - is on - the money IMO - if U do not kite (know the ins & outs) - the gear is likely seen as difficult to shift - suggest post flyers around the area of break in - and on walking tracks - U might get lucky - JIC - approach CConverters (and local equivalents) to see if they have a stolen goods register - if lazy they might try and dump the lot in one hit - thinking they are sold as a set!!

Hope something breaks in your favour -

Cheers

Sorry to hear about your gear loss mate.

Better lost gear than lost life though. You're lucky you didn't manage to catch them. If they stole a van to ram raid a chemist, chances are high that they were too...i.e high.

We would all like to beat the f#$k out of slimey bastards thieving our gear, but confronting drug addled meth heads most likely carrying weapons could end in disaster.

I hope your gear turns up.
