  1. Here are some lights on " Oats" Rev 1. Said they were cheap. Just slipped them between rod and bungee at the endcaps.
  2. Guess it was the lure of the SWEET giveaways! . Which now has twice the chances of heading to Norteast Florida....
  3. . Good to see ya made it Sean. Had a great time flying with the lights this evening!
  4. Worked late..... Guess I have to strap some lights on the kite today to get my fix.

  5. I have to say...all banter aside... In the short time I have been a member, I have seen some great giveaways. But this one is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow! WHAT a PRIZE! My hat is off to everyone involved in making and keeping Kitelife thriving and looking forward to many years of the best kiting site around! Thank You
  6. Ditto on the vented... I was wondering if it was going to arrive as bamboo spars and 3 hefty bags with directions for venting.
  7. I think its due to flying by myself all the time.. I do practice slow controlled and precision flying , but get bored and have to let it rip. Plus, in high wind it is sooooooo much fun to zip around the sky spinning like a mad man!
  8. My tuning then was out of whack, compared to now. The wind was blowing hard enough that the 1.5 with double leading edge was pushing it. Sporting my Treasure Island Kite Fest shirt..
  9. With the recent poll.... here is a short video I shot recently. Changed my handle tuning since this video and can perform clockwork and stop moves,flic flacs,etc... fairly easily and under control now. 13" Handles
  10. Well... if I did it right. Follow the link below to some bad videos of when I first got my snapshot (prism). All about 1.5 minutes long or less
  11. Although I should have come home and made 50# line sets.... I don't regret 1 second of the over 2 hours of light wind flying I put in on the beach! :)

  12. I'll get that this evening... Phones about too die from drooling over the next drawings picture and description..
  13. Several not very good videos of the 1.2 a minute and under on my YouTube channel.... Mystainedskin If you would like to see the abuse and flight first hand. I think small foils are great to start with. Learn the wind window and get used to reacting to kite movements....
  14. Just waiting for drawing day and my name or number gets pulled....... APRIL FOOLS!
  15. I started with the snapshot 1.2. Very durable...gave a beating every weekend for a year.. now it resides in the daily back pack for those "certain" days. Great starter and comes complete. For sure to get your moolahs worth from it...and when its boring..pass it along or save it as I did.
  16. Oh my! Just spun around 3 times and let out a wooohooo! Don't know my # , but I know my name.... Hope it comes my way!
  17. Darn.. all the Congrats Scott got me excited! Congrats ! Enjoy!
  18. Blowing 9-31 mph..I need a full vent kite!

    Hint..hint...poke...nudge....slap. :)

  19. It's cold, wet ,windy and cloudy outside with a chance of snow in Florida..... Think its time to go fly!

  20. Did the weather man just say possibly snow?

  21. As in Florida? I've been here my whole life.... how did I miss all this? Atleast I finally found my way.......
  22. I also only have a Rev2 and fly it on 90# all lengths...and agree with the weightless feeling,but the kite is still very quick. A roll of 50# should be here or be here soon. When I make some sets up, I will give it a vote.
  23. Can you hear it???

    I do.... It's 9-21mph wind calling my name.....
