  1. How to tell the difference between Rev rods... http://www.revkites.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14
  2. Thanks Steve, I've also got a lot of years on the Revolution... Nearly 16. I'm not sure if you cruised them, but there are a ton of great videos in our main archives... Also, there are quite a few 740x320 videos in the subscribers section. All cool stuff, great insight into some of sport kiting's heritage.
  3. Another... Little Red Riding Hood style. The last one was Bugs Bunny.
  4. We're adding a handful of videos to YouTube.com to increase public exposure to sport kite performances... Please stop by and give this one a 5 star rating!
  5. I thought it was chocolate pudding?
  6. Check out our new team site... http://www.iquad.us Tell us what you think!
  7. Bring everything you can! For quick, dirty and safe travel with kites... You can't beat a large capped PVC tube. I use a rolling hard case, but that's a $100 investment easy. Do a search for travel with kites on this forum, should turn up some more info.
  8. Not the only one in the USA... There's also Too Much Fun from SoCal. Plus, a whole bunch in Europe.
  9. Only if he uses 300# lines, eh? Yeah, good luck with that.
  10. We've got a vented Rev for ya, no problem. Hey Monks... "Continued on back" Eat my dust.
  11. Bless you Bill, come fly with us anytime!
  12. JD, you're already registered for Berkeley... NIB, NIP, EMB and EMP. Bring some music!
  13. The AKA appendix will be available shortly.
  14. Greetings, You can now find the updated IRBC Rules, Judges and Compulsories books (PDF format) on the World Sport Kite web site... These documents are effective for AKA competition as of August 1st, 2006. http://www.worldsportkite.com/irbc.htm Please note, there is an IRBC bulletin on the same page which clarifies the wording in two sections which were overlooked during the approval process... Corrections will be made to the hard copy during the next revision, scheduled for July of 2007. Competitors are invited to attend the Sport Kite Symposium for discussion and education regarding the new rules books, at the AKA Grand Nationals and Convention to be held in Des Moines, IA this October.
  15. He earned that moniker too... JD flew such a hot demo with his Sea Devil in Brookings a couple weeks ago, the announcer verbally tripped between saying his name and how fabulous the routine was! "Ladies and gentlemen, JD Fabulous... Err, JD Fabich, wasn't that fabulous?!?" Well flown man, I still say that routine would have pushed top three at many masters ballet events in the NWSKL. Good thing you won't be working your way through Novice and Experienced for the next couple years... I don't envy your fellow competitors though, they'll have their work cut out for them.
  16. We've just added three new videos to the Kitelifers subscriber area, two demos and a full 6 minute medley video of the festival... We're pretty fond of this latest medley too, which can be found at the bottom of the "festivals" section at Kitelifers. http://www.kitelifers.com All three new videos are 720x480 (nice big size), and the two demo videos are accompanied by iPod versions for those of you with portable media... The demo vids can be found on the "demos" page at Kitelifers. We've got more stuff in the works too, look for news here or in your email!
  17. In 1987, Don Tabor from Top Of The Line Kites filed this patent on a dual line controllable sport kite... http://www.delphion.com/details?pn=US04736914__ Can you imagine where we'd be today if he still held the patent and companies had to pay royalties on portions of their kite designs?
  18. Yay! Thanks for posting the photo Rob. Now, bone up on RandyG's videos and you'll be a trick machine in no time!
  19. That's a beauty... Gotta love those fractals! Welcome to the forum Eugene, don't forget to say hello at Berkeley.
  20. Demented!!!! Is that my old buddy from the IRC wars??
  21. Very cool ant man, we'd be glad to have you. Regular forum users get 5MB of photo storage, signing up would increase your album space to 100MB.
