I'm working on a series of kite flying vids and sounds/music's, and was pretty well ready to do some online testing....however when perusing vid material I remembered a kite I had many moons ago.....a blue and yellow Rev 1. With a situation at hand I quickly changed course and put this together as the test.....aleatorically...as that's the way I work sonic wise....and now video wise as well...lol. btw I still have a few Rev1's about.....my fav quads!! bt

Sorry, I didnt make it clear. I am an have been a subscriber for several years. when I see a site contest and follow the link it seems or my take is that it is only for those that are going to join. Must have been looking at it wrong.?

There are KiteLife subscriptions available. The money goes to support the site/site content. The giveaways are but one benefit of being a subscriber 👍.

I have seen occassional mentions of contests for items but I dont understand how to get my name submitted. When I follow the link it seems like it is only for anyone that is signing up. I am already a member. Am I missing something?

Hello, I wanted to give you all a little history of the Rainbow Kite company from my perspective I met Steve Edeiken in the late 70's when he was flying his newly invented Rainbow Stunt Kite on Venice Beach,CA. Steve was a wonderful friendly,enthusiastic entrepreneur and loved flying his kites. I was enthralled with his kites and we became friends. At the time I produced TV commercials for a large advertising agency, and I enlisted Steve to participate in a Peter Pan Peanut Butter commercial performing with a 24 stacked Rainbow kite. He performed brilliantly and gifted me with a personal stack (12) of Pink and Black stunt kites. Steve and I stayed in touch until his death. My recollection is that Steve died launching a 40' kite at a kite show in Washington/Oregon in the early 80's. Twenty people collectively launched the gigantic kite and Steve got his feet caught in the rope/stings and was lifted off the ground hanging upside down 100 feet in the air. The controllers/launchers could not bring the kite down because the wind was so strong and Steve was left dangling by his legs and feet until he dropped to his death in 1983. I'm sure all of you know the sad story. I have flown Steve's original kites all over the world in my 40 years of travels and the experience always brings children running to enjoying the experience of trying to catch the tails as they zoom above their heads. I live in Guatemala now and still spin his original kites with great memories of Steve and his enthusiasm. I lost touch with his wife Cindy, and his business, but glad to see some enthusiasts are still flying the Rainbow Stunt kite. Keep Spinning. G.Kaney. Antigua, Guatemala I have photos of Steve's original gift kites to share. Can't seem to attach them to this message
