I inserted a strut ( is that the correct name?) of 70cm in the plastic part that's designed to get the golf bag.

So I can lean the board on it and also hang the kite bag.

 

Another bag carried by the trolley

The golf trolley has one drawback, the center of gravity is quite high. to arrange that I add an Ikea bag (1 euro), also hang on the strut. I put the websuit and the harness in this bag.

Extend the handle

My lighwind board is quite long, 160 cm, therefore I had to extend the handle. Just a little peice of wood that goes inside the aluminium tube.

Another trolley

Designed by Blackbiard, another krench kitesurfer. It uses a trolley for heavy loads or beer case, plus a big toybox. Put evrything inside the toybox and the boards on the top
