  1.       WOW! I am really excited. I won the REV 1.5 vented package almost 10 years ago, ( Dec, 2008.) My son and I have really enjoyed it but it will be even better to be able to fly together now. Thanks so much, John, for the great prize.
        I discovered KiteLife online way back around 1998-99. It was very much instrumental in renewing my interest in kiting. I have been making and flying kites ever since. I have attended numerous kite making retreats, festival in several states and countries. I have taught at several retreats and kiting has been a part of mine and my family's life. I am proud to have been a supporter of KiteLife for all of this time. I am so happy that they inspired me to get back into kiting.
                                             
    Grant. Next time I see you, whip out that kite. Was great to meet you at Sky Circus.

  3. The best part of the Djinn is that you're getting the "PRO" regardless of stock color or custom color. Out of the bag, it's the exact kite JB or Brett have in their bag. 

    I've flown all 3 vents variations and I can say the Djinn didnt make me a better pilot. It let the pilot in me come out better.

  4. Sunday morning I left the Chicago area and I set out for adventure. Detroit.  Huge lake-effect snowstorm on I-94 from Indiana/Michigan border to Kalamazoo. Arrived safely and spent the evening with great people.

    Monday morning we drove to Maumee Bay State Park in Oregon Ohio and met up with several kiters in the area for a New Year Day fly.

    Thanks Brett for inviting me out. Thanks to Team Sky FX for having me fill in as tail-gunner for a few hours of team maneuvers. Black Swamp Air Force, it was a pleasure to meet you if even briefly.
