Indigo Sunrise has a new home.. @windpoacher found a tennis partner in low evening wind..

A little flic flac practice and general kite play from Whalehead.. Pilots @riffclown & @Mike Klaiber

I just thought of something. We could use sacrificial lengths of bridle line that would add an inch or two attached to the caps. Replace when worn with new ones. I wonder if it would make much difference when the bridle is an inch or two further from the sail. Replace just the one(s) that have worn should be really quick, even on the field. Just carry a half-dozen pre-tied loops in the accessory compartment. Knot of the loop goes at the cap, while the bridle is attached square knot style.

Let's see things to be envious of in kiting. Kites and Fun Things is my local kite shop. Wow top 3 for sure. Drove around in a Pinto years ago. Had a 350 chevy engine and was scary fast.Freaked a lot of people out with that car. Frame didn't last long though. Flying with Jon T and those folks you'll probably do more on the Vision in a month than I can do on the Widow Maker Pro after 6 months of flying. WMP is a Ferrari . Might not be able to fly it like the Ferrari it is but like most Ferrari owners I sure look good standing next to it LOL. You're gonna have a ball!!

Some clinic skills have no flying time attached to them but are so invaluable to a complete flyers toolbox. Thank you John Barresi Riff and others for a complete clinic experience!

@esinger was off to the side practicing with a duallie. It was a great weekend sharing sky, wind and lots of kite adventures with new and old friends..

I’m in too

I bought my first Rev I in the summer of 1989 in Traverse City, Michigan. (According to my kite inventory spreadsheet.) I paid the (then) princely sum of $300 for it. That was the most expensive kite (by far) that I had bought up to that time. Nearly twice what I had paid for a Hawaiian Team Kite. I know I had seen them flying before that.
