ilh Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 Wen, it was nice seeing you fly at BASKC this weekend. I managed to spend a little time on Scott Weider's standard Silver Fox the end of Saturday. Interesting kite, but then I am "old school" and don't know all these new tricks. New kites really want to jump on their back at the slightest provocation. --Lee Hetherington (flew a SUL rainbow Rev and an old-school yellow/white/blue homemade SUL all weekend--well I did briefly get the Katana in my avatar up a little on Saturday) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barresi Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Nice kites Wen, I just flew my set of Silver Foxes this weekend and nudged out a win against Lam in MIB with my UL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indigo_wolf Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 flew a SUL rainbow Rev And you made me smile every time you landed it on the "Staff" and "Kite Store" tents. Some pretty impressive side slides considering the lack on wind on Sunday. an old-school yellow/white/blue homemade SUL all weekend. DOH!! That's explains why I couldn't identify it. Should have just asked you what it was, instead of going bald scratching my head. Very pretty SUL. Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 this is at newport. what do you think the extra bow in the leading edge of the UL(grey) well afect it? SNAP I never noticed the extra bowing. Hasn't made much difference to me, I still haven't got past a fade yet. I've been concentrating on multiple kite flying with my yukons for the last few months. Only brake out the silverfoxes when the wind gets too low or too high for the yukons. I'm planning to fly the silverfoxes together just to see what they look like. I know I'll have to contend with different speeds and pull. If they work well on 100' lines I'll invest in 2 more silverfox std's next year. If not, I might get 3 acrobatx or maybe french connections. I've just ordered 2 Desire UL's today. I already have one. This kite will fly when the silverfox UL wont.
