I'm looking into doing a 4-hour INDOOR CLINIC here in Portland on either Nov 12th or 13th (Sat or Sun).
Not sure if I can get the space yet, but if so, we'd be looking at a max of six students and $25 registration. If I can pull this together, anyone interested? Must have at least 4 committed before I can go ahead.
Topics - dual line, quad line, whatever floats your boat, I can try to help!

Alright, update: Looks like I can only get the gym for Nov 5th (Sat), 1:15pm to 6:15pm... Still good to go for this Wayne?

For anyone reading here, we have filled all six slots for this clinic, sorry!

Thanks! Just got a B-Series (in the Night coloring) with 90# 120' lines, a 2 wrap and a race frame a couple of weeks ago from A Wind Of Change in Salt Lake (drove down for a visit!), and have been practicing! Need some tips on hovering and posture, light winds (light-gusty winds have been what I've been dealing with here the past few days) and clockwork items. So... thought I'd subscribe to check out the tutorials and spend some time on the forums!

Oh, forgot to mention it's a Mid-Vent.

Good stuff, you're in the right place here - lots if friendly and knowledgeable folks on hand to help and inspire.

Thanks John! Looking forward to learning the ropes! Thanks for having me. .

I'm partially regretting the purchase of my EXP. It's wonderful for coastal areas but not so great for the area i live in 1.5 hours away from good coastal wind. Is there a way to modify the EXP for lower wind conditions, or should i just buy another kite for lower wind?
I've got the bug for sure. Very excited to submerse myself in the Kite Life. . . Really enjoy the videos you post as well. Thanks for posting John.

Rock on - please repost your EXP question on the forum, you'll be well looked after - right now, I'm grabbing a quick connect while camping.

TK's family is a-ok, thanks go out to all who sent messages and emails.

Okay, I haven't flown anything since the Rev Clinic first weekend of the month (yeah - I know)... Should I blow off some of this afternoon and get a couple hours fix of street flying near my house, or stay a slave to this desk?
My fate is in your hands.

Rev vented b with 2 sets of tubes, case and handles( neon yellow & black). I also have a blue moon mse signed in really good condition. I have others as well.
Thanks,
Adam

Hey John!
I'm really honored to meet you in person! I live in Berlin and just bought a Rev 1.5 JB Edition :-)
Do you know that we have a huge abandoned airport over here in the center of the city (Tempelhof), which is perfect for kiting?
-
Just sent you an email, but it looks like you did manage to login - glad to see it.
Looks like a great kite venue, hope to see it myself someday!

Thanks for the welcome, John. I plan to crawl the topics and pages to see what I can learn about quad line kiting. I'm looking to purchase my first, just not sure what to get: HQ mojo, Freilin Windrunner, or Revolution. I have a limited budget of 200 bucks to start. I have read a couple forum post discussing buying US made vs. import but I'm looking for some additional wisdom from experienced quad line flyers.

You're in the right place, lots of good folks here - will get a fair range of feedback.

Thanks for the welcome, and more importantly, thank you for your instructional videos. As someone who has been involved with adult learning for more than 20 years, I have found them to be very clear and concise. Feel free to reach out me if you ever find you will be in Yellowstone again.
-
My pleasure! I really, truly love flying and being able to relate that potential experience to others is an honor - there will be more eventually, as time, venue, weather, assistants and inspiration allow. I'll try to remember about Yellowstone, but I'll certainly broadcast loud and clear when I'm on road trips. Again, welcome to the forum - please be at home.

Hey, all - just curious, who all here lives in Hawaii?
TK and I are exploring the idea of a Winter trip over, possibly both Oahu and Maui, with a clinic on one or both islands while we're there - trying to get an idea where the kite fliers are.

Hi all, Takako and I have a 7 hour layover at LAX (1:40pm to 10pm) on Wednesday (5/22)... Anyone in the Los Angeles area want a private kite lesson and/or dinner date in exchange for getting us out of so many hours at the airport?
Will be offline for a while, but we'll check Facebook messages when we land - include your cell # in a private message or email if you're interested.

Hi John,
Thanks for the welcome. I was made aware of this forum last weekend by a gentleman that came up to me while I was flying my Rev 1.5 at Myrtle Beach last week. He was on vacation from Florida, he was short older guy that goes to Myrtle every October. He was ecstatic to see someone flying a Rev there. I let him fly my Rev 1.5, but decided the winds were way too strong for it, so I changed to my Rev 2 and we both flew it for about 30 minutes. I wish I recalled his na...
