Right, time for us to go big or go home... :)

We're pleased to yet again announce the next prize being given away to our most appreciated supporters, the Kitelife Subscribers... For roughly 10 cents per day they play a major role in keeping KL growing in every way.

Zen from Revolution Kites, a $440 value!

This awesome low wind quad line kite is an original design by John Barresi and Bazzer Poulter!

"When I fly the Zen in light winds I feel like I have something in my hands again with a sail that is full and ready to do anything - like I could do in a 6 mph wind with a 1.5 full sail race rod combo. The Zen performs graceful slides to hairpin turns to big noisy dive stops, all with very little effort."
"Just the other day ... almost no wind ... I could hear people comments in the back ground.. but there is no wind... Is there a motor?? I just giggled to myself, carried on flying and thought to myself "Hey, there really isn't much wind is there."

"The more time you spend with the Zen you really start to understand where the name comes from as you get into the zen state. All you're thinking about is your kite, and every bump and every little twitch in the wind you feel and adjust for... It really keep your mind and soul working..."

Hmmm,

I need another Zen for a serious learner flier.

I also need an Extra Vented to test... How to do it when funds are short?

Felix, no whining or begging or pleading ... the bear has that approach all tied up and it doesn't work with the cold heart of the RNG.

Well, for pennies a day, I get to dream for the next month ...

Hey babe-

Sweeeeeeet!!!
This would be awesome to share when someone needs one for the afternoon (usually not too long as the winds tend to pick up after someone one up) ;)

Thanks for the opportunity.
