Do the math... A $32.95 yearly Kitelife subscription works out to $2.74 a month, which is less than the cost of three regular raffle tickets at an event! So, for a little less than 10 cents a day you currently receive a 1/65 chance of winning each prize (as of 9/4/04)!

In addition to the prize drawings, subscribers also receive the following:

• Access to our subscriber's area which offers exclusive photos and video from various kite festivals around the world, available nowhere else.
  
• 100MB of storage in the Kitelife PhotoFiles on line albums where you can display your favorite photographs and share them with visitors to our site.
  
• Special recognition in our Kitelife Forum by way of a special graphic seen in your postings.

It's not cheap to host all of the archives, out of print publications and videos that you can find on Kitelife, if you enjoy the content we offer please consider helping us by becoming an official subscriber!

Thanks for your support,

YAAA!!!!!!!!!!
I'm speechless. Hey, I've got some single line stuff. This will be cool. I wonder how a mirecat logo will look on it.

[John Barresi]

I think it'd be the only one like it.

[Jorge Arellano]

Its always great to win, something!!! Cant wait to have the kite here and go fly it.

[Jorge Arellano]

Good day John, I hope you are having a great time. Today I received my kite from the October Contest, my sister went to California and brought it to me. Its great!!! I already assemble it and found a lot of differences compared to my other kites which are in the range of starters.

I found that there is a mesh with velcro on the top, but couldnt find any information about the assembly of this in the manual or in the website from the Phoenix manufacturers, any idea about this? Also do you know if there is a VCD available for this kite? the website from Invento HQ makes reference to this. Maybe there is some hemlpful information on it.

Cant wait to go out this weekend to fly it.

Have a good day

Jorge

Good to hear Jorge! Sorry we had so much trouble getting it to you directly in Mexico, but we're glad it's safely in your hands.

As for details on the kite, I don't have anything... I would try posting your questions on the GWTW forum, a lot of them would be familiar with your "Phoenix Supreme" as well as whether or not there is any video available.

You might also try emailing HQ directly.

Please let us know how the maiden flight goes!?

[Jorge Arellano]

Hi John, I found some info at http://ralf.naujoks2...x-inside-e.html and gave me a better idea of the assembly and work of the kite, also took a look at the forums of the page you gave me and found useful information too.

I plan to do the maiden flight tomorrow (wind conditions allow).

I will keep you posted.

Have a great weekend

Jorge
