Some of the most helpful 2 line instructional videos for me can be found at....

Believe it or not, Martin claims to have been flying for only 6 years !

I can't wait to see some official KiteLife 2 line videos, the 4 line videos are really good !

Thanks Rob, you can count on some dual line tuts in the future. :)

I'll be starting with the fundamentals, launch, line tension, landings, turn methods, light wind flying, etc, etc...

After that, I'll start in with some trick tutorials, all picture-in-picture (hands/pilot and kite), of course.

There are a few tricks I need to learn first, got most everything under my belt already except:

- Crazy Copter
- Inverse
- Taz Machine
- Clockwise Comete
- Comete Cascade
- Yo Fade
- Multi Slot Machine

I also need to polish up my counterclockwise Comete, Slot Machine... Been looking at the various tutorials, just a matter of spending the time. :)

I guess that just goes to show that EVERYBODY is still working on something. I'm looking forward to see how you do things, even the basics, to compare to how I do things. I'm sure I could do alot of things better... I'm always working on tricks that I all ready know to make them better when I get frustrated trying to learn something new. I spent months recently just learning to gain more control over all aspects of my flying without learning any new tricks.
Videos from fliers like you are invaluable to fliers like me that hardly ever see anyone else flying a kite. So, thanks for doing that...
