FXRcR1 Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Hi Guys, Just bought a purpose built dune bike from a former member here and planning a trip to LS (pic attached if it works). How strict are they at LS with the 10 ft. flag height requirement? RMATV sells 6 ft. flags which would come up a bit short to the requirement. Should I chance it and just get a 6 ft. flag or suck it up and pay 3x as much for an 8 ft. flag from LS Sand Sports?Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FXRcR1 Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I was told they're $30.... $10 at RMATV. I'm buying for a group of guys all going which is why I ask. I wouldn't care so much if it was just $20 extra for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprinklerman Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I'll tell you this. If your flag doesn't hit the pole, you're not going through. So that's up to you. It's just a 1 time purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppedupandcutdown Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 HAS to be 10' off the ground, HAS to have a SOLID red or orange flag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprinklerman Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 HAS to be 10' off the ground, HAS to have a SOLID red or orange flag.Forgot about that 1yr and they stopped me. The flag can't have writing on it. Must be solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FXRcR1 Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 OK, cool. Thanks for the help guys. That's exactly what I wanted to know, whether or not they actually checked on the 10 ft. status. If there's a bar you have to hit on the way through that's pretty cut and dry.

fastbanshee8 Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) The gas station on the south end of Waynoka sells flags, and they are a bit cheaper there, than at the dunes. Edited August 27, 2014 by fastbanshee8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FXRcR1 Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Thanks for the tip. Very nice bike btw. I am also in Hutchinson, KS.... well actually I'm in NY but I keep my toys in Hutchinson at my parent's house and ride them when I visit a few times/year.

Coupelx Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 If you buy at the dunes, save the receipt, it has a warranty against breaking. Bring sandals for the shower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
