  2. Nah, I got my Cody a couple weeks ago... I've just been on the road for the last 5 weekends in a row, haven't had the presence of mind to say anything.

    Thanks a bunch Rick, even if the kite is PINK. :)

  3. Yep, it's my 30th birthday... Half of those spent in kiting.

    Just wanted to send best wishes to ALL OF YOU, and invite you to celebrate my birthday by going and flying your favorite kite... I'll be doing the same in New Mexico over the next week or so.

    May the higher power be with you.

    For those not attending, it's the next best thing to being there... We'll post news, highlights, photos and results after each day.

    We'll also be doing the same for World Sport Kite Championships, but we'll get into that later. :wacko:

  7. For those who haven't heard, Sue Sedgwick (aka Taft) passed away at 8pm EST last night... One of our earliest pioneers, a beautiful performer, and lovely human, she will be dearly missed.

    When I first started flying way back in 1990, she was one of the first master fliers that I got to watch... Both her and Lee have been a source of inspiration ever since.

    Any and all who knew Sue should be encouraged to share some words about her for inclusion with a memorium article in the nnext issue.
