  1. Awesome shot! Like that there's another jet in the background too
  2. View Advert Sport Kite Zipper Pulls & Kechains Here are some sport kite style accessories I designed for my own kite bags/jacket etc. that can be used as zipper pulls, keychains or even earrings. I made just a few extra to share/sell, but will consider making more if there's enough interest. They're red-orange plastic on one side and white on the other which can easily be painted or written on. There are three sizes: 30, 50 & 60mm wingspan. Each one will come with 50mm long 80lb Dacron line (I use it for link lines & bridles) and I can do longer lengths if needed. Please contact me directly if interested.

  3. Thanks so much riffclown. Your tutorial is much better than the one I had seen years back. I understand that the 1.8 is a bit short for this but just thought it would be fun and give a wider speed range Me and a soaring buddy did similar line crosses a few weeks ago. Our lines didn't fair as well as yours but it was great fun.
  4. A while back, I read somewhere (not on this forum) that some of the Prism Snapshot foils could be converted to quad-line. I can't seem to find that old tutorial but am planning to try it with my Snapshot 1.8. Does anyone have a guide to doing so or thoughts about advantages/downsides to it? Fair Winds, -8th
  5. Thank You makatakam. It's nice to be part of such a great community
  6. Dear Mr. Barresi and Kitelife, Thanks for the automated but nicely crafted welcome and to everyone who has contributed to this forum. Here's a little introduction of my Kite-flying experience: Single line & Stunt Kites for a little over 20yrs. Quad Line Rev EXP for about a year now too Some of you here might recognize my screen name from the old Prism Forums in which I did a little tutorial on making a split leading edge and main spar for the Prism 3D for travel; similar to the way the new 4D is now. Still flying that same 3D and loving other wind/air related hobbies like RC aircraft (all types) and sailing too. What's currently in my bag: iFlite & iFlite2 Vented (Made by Layangman) Prism 3D Prism Neutrino 3 Stack Prism Jazz Prism Nexus x2 with stack lines & tails Prism Snapshot 1.8 FlyingWings SilverFox UL Revolution EXP Fair Winds, -8th
