  1. I'm guessing he went Lime/Black, because I recall a purple/gray VTD going to Jacksonville
  2. Got my location on both. That's a pretty cool feature that I guess I was only passively aware of. Thanks, JB for yet one more bit of KiteLife awesomeness.
  3. I never got cookies. What's up with that?
  4. I'm lucky that my love for flying pairs up really well with my wife's hobbies, even though she is not an ardent flyer. She is a fiber artist. She spins yarn, knits, crochets, dyes, weaves, etc. The nice thing about that hobby is that it is imminently transportable, and kite flying places are generally very pretty and good backdrops for what she likes to do. She will fly her duallies occasionally, but she mostly loves to just hang out, get into her zone, and do her thing. We both do pretty well in the earnings department, but we are trying to hit the savings pretty hard so that we can get a farm and she can raise sheep and alpaca and really make her hobby a start to finish lifestyle. So kite purchases are planned and saved for (especially now that my tastes in kites has developed to its current level of refinement). Once we get to the farm owning point, we will obviously have to re-evaluate the traveling aspects, since you can't just leave the animals unattended. A big plus there is that our farmland will have an adequate kite flying field, so maybe we can talk some folks into traveling to us. We'll see about that.
  5. Very nice, keep it up!
  6. I think I'm going with "Inland Kite Warrior". 75 more!
  7. Isn't it weird that forcing them to post a legitimate email address then click on a link in an email to that address before they can start their spamming onslaught is sufficient to stop those jerks?
  8. That's the way I've been doing it. It also removes the issues with mobile version vs. standard version playing them over the website.
  9. JB, I'm pretty sure I couldn't hold a camera that steady in my hand. Nice flying!
  10. That was Scott ! I wasn't referring to his last post, just your general return to KiteLife, and us getting to see you around here more often.
  11. Glad to see you back in the forums, Nick. You were missed
  12. Sucks when the jeans go away. Levi's 565s were my favorite all time. Suddenly, no more making them. Oh well.
  13. Absolutely, chat is the fastest way to get feedback on your questions.
  14. Don't forget to send us pictures. Welcome to kiting.
  15. I'll be there. Thanks for the flip flop avatar, Nick. Helping me visualize a warmer place.
  16. Wish we were still in TI. This falling white stuff stinks!
  17. Maybe the question should be why are our friends to the north (or Alaska and Hawaii for that matter) are excluded. Perhaps a willingness to pay the shipping difference should allow inclusion. I'll certainly include that clause if I ever get to offer a prize again.
  18. Had a similar experience at TI. JB the pants are your uniform. Love sharing a field with folks that know more than me. Picking brains and getting better.
  19. Very nice flying! Jorge, can you get in touch with Bill? I thought I put his email in my phone, but apparently I didn't save it. He was going to send me the link to the supplier of the diamond pattern fabric he made his kite bags with.
  20. Still trying to see prices, options, and how to order. I'm very interested.
  21. Zero is coming out firing. I personally am pulling for Karen in this one.
  22. I had to do some growing up before I could truly appreciate the many subtle nuances of that scene. Once I did, yowser!
