  1. I found one in my house that's been sitting there for ages. It sat under the stairs for at lease 10 years. Today I decided to try it out. It was nice, not as floaty as "modern" ultra light kites, but sure was close. The kite didn't take any effort to get up and it stayed up even with the winds we had (probably 4 mph and lower) I sure had a crowed today and got many people interested in kites I had people asking questions like "whats a great beginner kite" and other questions. I may make a new sail for it. we will have to see.
  2. Still playing with the big bang from new tech kite. Its been almost a year and i still fly it everyday. Everyday I fly it about 3 times a day. I taught many people on my big bang. Both cub scouts and boy scouts flew it and i had seniors (old people) flying it. It is still stock and after all it crashes it still strong (at lease mine is holding up) I will have to change lines and handles soon. Night flying is great with it. This is the best money I ever spent on anything. Very strong. Thanks New Tech kites. Performance
  3. My team (me and my friends) are flying Oranges. Here are the plans http://wildkite.net/plans_e.htm They are nice and smooth kites and it floats. It can do any trick in the book pretty much and I love the kite. I use laser pro gold 150# x 120'
  4. I still lovin the big bang. I taught many people on the kite and I fly it everyday. It has gone threw alot of crashes and ect and it is still holding up great. This has to be the best "bang for a buck kite" I ever flown. I love it.
  5. audioRob, I made a mistake in the typing, it has a wingspan of 86" and a height of 38 inches. Sorry for the mistake and sorry no picutres yet. I will get some pics next time I fly, but now I have to study for a big test in school. You know I have to make it to college.
  6. John, right now the teams consist of me, friends, and family. We started the team in january 2006. We haven't compete yet in any big competitions, but we will try to start. We started the teams because my father thought I was a great kite flyer and when I was flying with my friends we would fly to music and all that fun stuff. I hope to be as big as you someday John.
  7. The Brio is a Intermediate to Advanced skill level kite. It has a Wingspan of 86" and a Height of 48". The wind range is 3-20 mph. This was my first freestyle kite that I designed. I had a great time designing it and It felt great to see it fly for the first time. It does every trick in the book, I love it. I haven't weight it yet. It floats though. Plans in the near future...

  8. The title says it all. I was over at my local hobby shop the other day when I saw this kite. I didn't know much about it, but I bought it any way. When I got home I put it together and went to my schools parking lot. After Playing with the kite for 4 hours I have to say it is 100% fun. It is great at everything. Axels are great and ect. I would reccomend anyone to buy it. I have over 20 kites in my collection and I love this kite alot. This kite will go with me every where I go. Performance
  9. Thanks Prog for that thread, it was very helpful. I may try that bridle. I am in love with the prism Quantum pro scheme so I will do it on my orange.Does anyone know what fabric they used thanks???
  10. Hi Ya, I wanted to share with you what I will use next year for my competition kite. Me and my team will be using these stunt kites for ballet and freestyle http://wildkite.net/plans_e.htm Here are the plans off someones website. I got to fly one of these over the summer and I love it alot. It is very smooth in Maneuvers and tracks very well. It is also a awsome freestyle kite. I am making the Ultra Light version. The rest of my team are also building the Ultra Light version.I have a questions though... Questions -Anyone know what fabric that they used for Prism Quantum Pro?? I like to use that color scheme for my teams kites. Thanks, Performance
