Absolutely.. this is an event I try to make each year..

Yeah, guess being between two major cities has upsides at least when it comes to Craigslist. . I will be interested to see your results and how clearly they show feedback for learning from. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using KiteLife mobile app

It's been a whiles since I added any entries to the blog but it not for lack of sewing kites. After Jester II I decided it was time for some new color chemes AND new fabric.. 22 YArds of Icarex in Black White, Silver and Gray followed soon after.. I decided to take a chance and make an offer on the scrap bin and received a good bit of the full spectrum of colors..A full sunset fade was the first endeavor followed closely by purple fade with several different shades of purple A touch of blue was commissioned by a friend and what color was left went into a true color quilt I call Scrapestry.. I PLAN for all of these kites to get first flight at the Rogallo festival at Jockeys Ridge, Nags Head NC in just over a week. Still a ways to go but Leading edges are made and the panel sewing is all done except for the center panel section of Scrapestry.. Hopefully there will be video soon..

You folks sure got a bang up nice kite. That move where your arm goes way up in the air. That's the Orangutan. Doesn't do much, makes you look funny and I still do it at times LOL. After all your frustrations really good to see you flying. Nice job you 2.

went out for a group fly. :-) 45 min. away I actually was flying , with the help of some wind. 😁 Check me out!! YEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Last two days were epic winds . I killed it with my foil!!!!!!!!!! 18mph gusts , 12 mpg, yesterday, way too windy for my UL! I told my wife to film." Stay in the moment" Todd, wife is my coach , she has never flown , but screaming bring in your wrists. lol!! lol I was hauling ass!!!!!!!!!!! great work out !! I need her for take offs with foil, she throws it up. Untwists lines,I'm not sure how you guys can go solo? I'm getting it !!! Peace ... Todd

Amazing how large a 9' wide kite really is. This is the rough pattern for 5/9 ths of that. WOW, this is going to be a monster. Next I'll have to make the patterns for the individual parts before I can start cutting ripstop.
