  1. Today I saw a man with a stunt kite tattooed on his shin. Anyone else out there have kite themed tatts? Let's see 'em!!! (if they're fit for public viewing...)

    I know, it looks perfect! I hope y'all have a great time. I'm starting to think this year is kite cursed for me. :/

    Looks like I'm working tomorrow. Wahhhhhhh! I need to become independently wealthy so that I can do the things I'd rather be doing. Sighhhhh.
  7. Ohhhhhhh, these are GREAT! So many fun designs. Do you sell them????!
  8. Where does one get a Vented 1.5 in Purple????

    I might make it for a little while, if I can get some progress going on the huge pile of kites I still have to sew before the AKA convention. Aerochic, if you show up, I'll have a mess of new pennants. Maybe we can talk about one for you.... Ooooh! Here's hoping! I start a new job this week, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to take off that weekend. I don't like making promises I'm not sure I can keep. I'm hoping I can make it tho, I could really use your guy's help. I would like to start having fun with this. :/
  10. I have to go with the Blender. Everytime I've seen videos of iQuad doing them I just marvel at how you manage to keep all those lines untangled!!! 2nd Fave is the Fly Through Burst as it just looks so damned cool in the sky.
  11. Heya Folks, Does anyone know of any good kite shops in and around Portland, Maine? I'm going to be up there at some point next week and discovered that Northern Sky Toyz has shut it's doors! Wah!!! :'( I'll also be within range of Saco, Old Orchard Beach and Scarborough.
  12. You're not kidding there, Lee!!! Whoo Boy!
  13. Hee hee! That looked like alot of fun!
  14. Awwww that sucks! There is next year tho, so that sounds positive.
  15. If you buy an SLE, then make sure you automatically order a 3 Wrap leading edge to go with it. The SLE takes great abuse but is hard to learn on. If I knew some shops would have swopped that out for me to begin with, I would have done that.
  16. Depends on my mood. If I just want to chill on the beach I fly my single lines. If I want to have "fun", I mess with my stunts and quad.
  17. Happy Birthday!

  18. Ahhhhh, it's great to be in demand tho! Do you have a website up of your work? I'd love to check it out. I have no problem waiting until January. Stay tuned for a forum email from me.
  19. Ok, so they are tubes (which are 1/4" diameter), and therefore not solid! Understand.
  20. I thought as much but wasn't sure. I know the SLE rod is about 1/2" diameter. Are the 1/4" rods solid?
  21. Ahhh, that definitely clears it up for me! Thats the best description I've heard yet! Thank You! Eventually I'm going to replace my SLE rod with something else and I've been trying to narrow that down. Looks like overall forum opinion thus far is to go with a 3 wrap. As I get more skilled I'll know what type of flying I prefer. Right now all I know is that I'm not looking for power / speed flying. That's what turned me off about my dual line kite.
  22. Those of us without sewing machines wouldn't mind buying some of those off of you. I have no idea what to ask for a price tho! :? My budget is very limited right now, but I know that the cost of one's labor is hard to determine. These looked really wonderful on the beach, btw!
  23. When people refer to the 1/4" rods, are we talking about 2 wrap, 3 wrap, or 4 wrap??? Are those 3 ALL 1/4" rods? I find this a bit confusing.
  24. Nice site! Easy to navigate as well. I found the altitude records really interesting!
  25. I had lost the kite shops that I used to patronize. What saddens me most about it, is that people miss out on some of the beautiful home made kite designs the owners would produce. I can still kick myself for not buying certain pieces.
