Good endurance! ...Now why don't I have any good looking red kites?...

A few pictures from Nomandie... Omaha Beach, the beach of Vauville and and and... Djinn, Kmac 61/49, Kitehouse Super Tox, Level One.

Again, the Rev B-series, this time the mid-vent on 25m lines (82ft). Actually on a beach today, so very little ground contact not to have sand in the end caps. The main drill of the day. Themes of the session: Focus this time on... really feeling the lines (or occasionally remind myself to) - Not only see the kite and summarize the move by a feel(/feeling?)., but focus on feeling the lines and think about the handles movement. Identify the input one is doing. Work on doing the ladder down wing tip pivots backwards while minimizing the end/stop wobbling, Method: mix in forwards ladder up wing tip pivots (easier) to get feeling of the the powered drive when flying the wing through the pivot. Then preserve the feeling when doing backwards/down pivots. Think of the handles and think what “they” did the last time when the move went well so that you can increase that component(s). And yes, the drill is cyclic.

Golden hour. A small village in Normandy.

Just unpacked after 2 days shipping (US -> Germany) : Kmac 61/49. Looking forward to flying it the next few days.
