concur totally!!! My bride and I had a great time at the SPI kite fest for the past week. WoW put on a good show too, Cosca did great as the MC on the mic! Fletch and I supported him thru sherpa duties, then did our own things when possible. We picked-up and incorporated stragglers (who fit our selection criteria "must be misfit material") as a part of our team. I would have loved a couple of hours of dead calm outside so we could abuse the AUAs acquired recently And,... we didn't use the mylar holographic tails either! Everyone was so friendly, we were recognized thru-out the weekend walking the island, felt like rock stars on holiday. Lots of folks were repeat spectators, both indoors and outside it seemed. They'd set-up and stayed all day too, beeping the vehicle's horn if we did something profoundly entertaining. We had folks stop us in the airport, during meals, just an amazing feeling to experience. (I AM the worst pilot in attendance, they still knew MY name!)

Thanks for the amazing party, everyone. I don't know about others, but I had a blast. I got to fly nearly every kite in my bag; from the kaiju in the calm through the Kymera and Hydra on the dual lines, and from full sail to the hardcore vent on the quads. Enjoyed a night fly with my animated LED lights playing with color changes through direction and motion, plus I had my first big solo demo. And I got to watch an incredible indoor show. Through it all I kept meeting, talking, and flying with all you wonderful folks. Let's do it again soon.
