  1. Thanks to y'all, for helping me keep this ball rolling.
  2. You could if you want! A 500 ft spool would suffice for a 120' line set, need sleeving and a sleever too, as well as a winder for the new set.
  3. If someone brought supplies, we could certainly put an example set together before or after the clinic on Sat or Sun.
  4. I can pump out a 120' line set in about 25-30 minutes... Will definitely do a tutorial on this at some point.
  5. 65' is fine for solo stuff, it's just the team exercises that require 120'. Some good info on the benefits of different lengths...
  6. I'm trying to be good, over 40 now. lol Its hard!
  7. PS: I realize some of you already have many of those details licked, just doing a blanket announcement.
  8. Attention... @Mike Klaiber @Lynn Pugh @Terrel @RICK TUTTLE @ACrop @Steve Jenkins I'm pretty sure this is my first clinic with all of you, and I want to be sure and remind you to bone up on these basics if you haven't already - please consider this your minimum homework. Familiarity will pay off on the field, even if you don't have it all nailed yet. If you want to go a bit further with your homework, the whole playlist of free tutorials is here... http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSuS-sRtr5k8bkMIgL7EprEYfsgF-N6z1 And of course, KiteLife subscribers have access to twice as many tutorials here... http://kitelife.com/video-tutorials/#index Looks like it's going to be a great weekend, lots of smiles ahead - please be at ease (don't worry too much), my prime directive is to set you up to win!
  9. Awwwwwww, I'd gladly fly 3000 miles.
  10. It doesn't surprise me anymore, but still deeply honored.
  11. Simple nylon grosgrain. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app
  12. Just 2 spots left open now.
  13. My pleasure man, always a pleasure to meet other fliers. Reach out to @Robin McCracken, he should have insight into fliers closer to you.
  14. Moved this into it's own thread, wound up hijacking the other Zen for sale post.
  15. Best I've got... http://kite.org/aka/local/resource_finder.php?css=http://kite.org/css/calendar.css&region=6

  19. Nope, kite in hand and shot with iPhone 6. That'd be more like this...
  20. This is exactly why I treasure my LE tabs... My Pro STD, you can see the mesh has broken down along the majority of the LE but the tabs keep the sail in place so my airfoil doesn't go to crap. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app
