John Barresi Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 Day one of the competition in Berck sur Mer, France... Note, the list is A-Z... TBA denotes top five score in either ballet or precision. http://www.gombergkites.com/update/447.html Thanks David! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That weave sequence they do from 3:15 to 3:35 puckers my tail in a good way. <grin> WOW, that's a lot of action! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Barresi Posted April 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 The problem with complex moves like that is when you change flight order, all the steps change... Hard to do, without a regular squad. Eventually, I'd love to have six full time guys available enough to create a polished 6 minute routine. Requires regular practice, and we can't quite get enough dedicated airtime yet with iQuad's changing roster, geography and schedules. *pout* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barresi Posted April 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Again, be sure to stop by and read the Gomberg Daily Updates, as it happens, from France! Ninja video was just added, thanks David! These guys are one of the oldest competing sport kite teams in the world, the remaining original member goes back to 1986 if my info is right. Neat style from these guys, different routine than the one I saw from them in Tokyo last October. I really liked their Taiko drum routine, seen it with 3 and 4 pilots... Here's a video of them from 1991. We've also got some video of them from the 2006 World Sport Kite Championships, just have to find it and upload. This new routine is very fast, lots and lots of turns, not sure if I'd be able to keep it all straight as a flier! Ninja has a very unique ballet style, I always enjoy watching them, keeps me on my toes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barresi Posted April 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Watnu's video is now up on the Gomberg site. I'd imagine final results will be up on his page tomorrow sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
