  1. I would always tie kites to the seat post of my bicycle with about 10 feet of line and ride around and around our neighborhood keeping it flying as long as I could. I also remember attaching a second lineset to a cheap, single attachment point delta and being extremely frustrated when the stupid thing would not do any tricks when I pulled on the handles.
  2. I'm leaning towards a JB to Florida for an all around fun flying weekend/knowledge sharing when I win the weekend drawing. Maybe J'ville. Invite the Emerald Coast Folks and a few others if they are interested. Hearing your tales from the clinic with those folks and the good time that was had, makes me want to see if we can recreate it with a couple new faces. Whatcha think?
  3. Indoor trampoline kite flying could make the Olympics. That's the kind of competition rules we need the AKA working out for furthering kiting.
  4. Most DEFINITELY Barton! I would really enjoy that! What's the chances of you coming to Ft Walton next month for KHK'S fest? Sadly, no chance. . We have a lot going on work wise and with other things in March.
  5. Jason, we need to share a field sometime. Maybe when I win JB for a weekend we can arrange something.

  7. Nice flying both disciplines. Looked like total control. Well done! And oh to fly in a t-shirt and shorts
  8. Will do.... And this is why I love this sport and the people who do it!
  9. Saw that exact color pattern on the same model kite being flipped around like a pro by mystainedskin himself in TI. When others (who shall not be named, but who SHOULD have known better) claimed adamantly there was not enough wind to fly a Rev. I was flying behind him so I could watch. An axel master grew up literally right in front of my eyes. .

    E-cigs ? Vaping ?

    The only time I'm bothered by folks vaping inside is when it smells all froo-froo like cherry life savers or something
  11. I'm guessing purple, since Lime and Grey were the colors for the June drawing last year.
  12. Post says Lime and Grey...picture says Purple
  13. Sand doesn't get stuck in my shoes when my shoes are flip flops. I did at least have jeans some of the time. It was a welcome break from work and winter. The Windfeathers are going to become a part of my kite travel contingent. They were definitely handy for staking out our place.
  14. Drawing Day! How was the trip, Chris? Did the kites make it safe?
  15. New drawing posted, awaiting mod approval. A glance at the recently posted gallery pics gives away the secret, though.
  16. Alright, KiteLife friends. Here we go! I would first like to thank windpoacher for the generous prize and KiteLife for the opportunity to pay it forward. The next Karma prize will be a Valentine's Day Special. Drawing will be held on the evening of February 14th, entries taken up to the point of the drawing. The prize is a Prism Large Roll-Up Bag in silver and black (http://www.thekiteshoppe.com/products/Prism-Large-Roll%252dUp-Bag-Blue.html). This bag is used, but just barely. This was my first bag and it came with me on one or two trips before I outgrew it. It is in impeccable shape and now it can be yours! http://kitelife.com/forum/gallery/image/5170-/ http://kitelife.com/forum/gallery/image/5169-/ As one little added bonus, I'll throw in a set of my Rev Handle No-Snag Adaptors. If the winner isn't a Rev flyer or doesn't want the adaptors we'll work something out, probably in the form of a similar value gift certificate to The KiteShoppe. To enter post clearly "I'm in" Entry number will be assigned in order of entry. Drawing will be done using the RNG method. All entrants are welcome. I'll cover shipping to anywhere in the continental US. International entrants must be willing to cover the difference in shipping cost. Good Luck All. 1. Joespickles 2.
