SparkieRob Posted May 9, 2013 Report Posted May 9, 2013 Revive an old topic. On the odd occasion my wife takes the 2 oldest (7 & 5) shopping and I stay at home with our little toddler (19 months), I put her in her high chair at the front porch and entertain her with my Rev on short lines. She LOVES it. My wife thinks I'm crazy! 4 Quote
RobB Posted May 9, 2013 Report Posted May 9, 2013 Hey Rob... I fly my gliders in the back yard, I've even cut the low branches off the trees to eliminate sail hazards. It was pretty funny seeing this topic revived, I was really surprised to see a post from AntMan (Anthony). I haven't seen his name in a L-O-N-G time. He lives in South Jersey, maybe he'll show up at Wildwood at the end of the month ! 3 Quote
Louis DeWolff Posted May 9, 2013 Report Posted May 9, 2013 Thats funny stuff thats my story to gald I have a big yard kind of by the bay, I have 3 boys and not to much time to go anywhere either. I made some gliders to fly around try a urban ninja or something like that, I tried to upload a pic but it didnt work. 1 Quote
mystainedskin Posted May 9, 2013 Report Posted May 9, 2013 Fly in the street and neighbors yard (power lines) regularly. Gotta do what you gotta do! 1 Quote
West Australian Posted May 10, 2013 Report Posted May 10, 2013 Awesome Pic SparkieRob. Great to see you are grabbing the Airtime you can. I live in a very Bush area. Lots of tall trees. My Front Yard has more than 8 trees taller than the house. I sometimes use a glider in the backyard, Lots of Trees there too though. 1 Quote
SHBKF Posted May 10, 2013 Report Posted May 10, 2013 Short lines & a 4D flew in my drive way this evening with the horses making comments on the side. 1 Quote
John Barresi Posted May 12, 2013 Report Posted May 12, 2013 A little grass lot 2 blocks from my house... Regular 90 degrees wind shifts, wind pockets, total lulls, 2-story buildings, 10' wall, trees, it's all fodder for the grinder. 5 Quote
Tmadz Posted May 12, 2013 Report Posted May 12, 2013 I have a 10 acre park and ponds across from my front yard. I can usually get some good E-W winds to fly well. N-S stinks, but any day flying is a good day 2 Quote
SparkieRob Posted May 12, 2013 Report Posted May 12, 2013 Fly in the street and neighbors yard (power lines) regularly. Gotta do what you gotta do!Sometimes I fly up and down the street much to the amusement of my neighbours, people on the oval, various dog walkers, people driving past.... 2 Quote

I think it was John that shared something not long ago, I don't remember the person quoted from...... It basically said " Those that were seen dancing ..were considered crazy by those that could not hear the music" I did it this evening with some cold beers , 4 gigs of video to rumble through. 3 Quote
West Australian Posted May 17, 2013 Report Posted May 17, 2013 Great Quote, It goes well with this... "Dance to the music in your mind" 2 Quote
