Hi, Glad to join the forum, my name is Andy, I have been flying kites purely on a pleasure basis for about 20 years or more. Mainly two line stunt kites and also owned a Rev for a fair few years, but recently sold it due to wanting to concentrate on two lines, and also to get my head around some tricks, have performed the most basic things, but having a resurgence and want to become better.

I have also built a number of my own kites, having also been a model yacht sailmaker on a semi professional basis for a number of years.

I wish I could be as successful flying kites as I was sailing in Europe, making the top 4 places on a number of occasions at European events.

I am over 60, still employed as a captain in the merchant navy working on the UK coast.

Own kites from HQ, Prism, Elliott, Spirit of Air and own design.
