Alright, we've got three hot topics lined up... Hopefully we'll reach a point someday where I don't feel like I have to stress this - do not underestimate the depth of subject and gratification available in these online sessions, we've ALL been surprised so far at how quickly time goes by, how enjoyable it is, and the sheer volume of details and experiences that we were able to comfortably relate. -- KiteLive: Quad - Light Wind Theory (Apr 12, 1pm PDT) https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_4Vil8QW2Rv2BPYPYqFOcZg - KiteLive: Quad - Talkin' about Team (Apr 13, 1pm PDT) https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_T4Ub7zyZTESlURRYIVZAHw - KiteLive: Flight Vocabulary and Content (Apr 18, 1pm PDT) https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Z992K48kQiOWpERkft45EA -- Registration includes all members of your household, we are expecting a variety of seasoned panelists to participate in each session, and projected duration is roughly 2 hrs each with the ability to go longer if group enthusiasm dictates. I sincerely hope to see many of you in one or more of these sessions - its odd times, and the socialization does us good. 🤟

Another in our ongoing series of Rev tutorials, this one covering basic light wind techniques and how the Rev transitions between a powered state and gliding state, enabling anyone to fly in the lightest of winds, simply by cycling your ground space and know how to apply tension. NOTE: A reliable (and free) cross-platform video player is VLC, which should work with any file format including MKV.

Full day dedicated to learning our way around short line (30') quad line flying - focus on tuning, basic "holding patterns" to maintain flight with minimal effort, 360s, up and over, catch and throw, variable and no wind conditions. Light / variable wind flying in urban environments IS possible without a great deal of effort after you've got a handle on the fundamentals - then you can fly anywhere, even your front yard or in a local courtyard - just think how much gas this will save you! We only have space for FOUR students this time around, this is a one day semi-informal gathering at Overlook Park in Portland, OR... Registration is $100 per person, discounted to $75 for KiteLife subscribers. Location - https://goo.gl/maps/NH7rr46qrDw Video from the same location... Students should come equipped with 30 foot lines - 50# Skybond is preferred, but 90#/100# or LPG is acceptable... You'll also do best with a STD 1.5 size Revolution kite equipped with 2 wrap, black race or diamond rods, it could also be useful to have mid-vent but it's very rarely needed. These are TWO different workshops on different Saturdays, you are welcome to attend either one or both. Registered for the 9th (finished): Dylan N. Cardin N. Khanh N. Registered for the 16th (CLASS IS FULL): Dylan N. Cardin N. @flexifoil21 (Russ) @crazy5 (Jeff)
