Penny Lingenfelter Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 PCKA is holding their kite festival in Orting, WA the first weekend of Aug. Now, here is the pin that Ron designed. I love the top of it. lol The bottom? When I asked Ron about it, he said he just gave up answering people's questions.. I told him he caved. What do you think?

Penny Lingenfelter Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 A fan???? Are they implying that we can't truly fly without wind? Yup..... he caved. I've flown with box fans like 3 x 3 .. Not easy, not fun, and very limited..... ewwwww fans. BB Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spence Watson Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 If it's possible, why not replace the fan with a couple kite flyers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny Lingenfelter Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 If it's possible, why not replace the fan with a couple kite flyers? They have probably already been molded. Yeah, we'll have to mob Ron. BB Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spence Watson Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 I'm in. Any one know when or if pre-registration will be up for WSIKF stuff? At www.nwskl.org the registration form is still not posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBGB Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 I'm in.Any one know when or if pre-registration will be up for WSIKF stuff? At www.nwskl.org the registration form is still not posted. It will probably go up about the same time as Cutting Edge Summer Heat. Since the scorekeeper and CJ will probably be setting up both at the same time. Because the two are so close together, early registration for WSIKF is generally mandatory. In other words, the registration form should be up soon.

Spence Watson Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 I doubt it is mandatory. I remember last year I went to the tent to register at the beginning of the week for events 3 days later, and they said that registration doesn't open until the day before the event. They even laughed at me as if I was crazy for thinking I could register early. But It will be good to be able to register far in advance. I think it will make things go much smoother.

I can't imagine who told you that! Was it someone from NWSKL? You would have needed to register with NWSKL. Not the WSIKF folks in the tent. Don is correct, pre-registration is VERY helpful for the WSIKF event. And the form was up, before the scorekeepers went to the previous event in Ocean Shores. I was the one in the tent, having to hand write and figure the late entries and collect the fees before the pilot meeting. Bud should have the reg form up real soon. If you are on the NWSKL e-mail list, you will be notified as soon as Bud has it on-line. Early and pre-registration is VERY HELPFUL for the event organizers! Thanks!!!

EBGB Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Ah, I see where that could cause some confusion! The folks in the registration tent on the beach have very little to do with the sport kite events. I believe they do registration for the Junior and Senior events that they've been running for years. Maybe they thought you were trying to sign up as a senior? "Mandatory" is probably too strong a word. "Highly recommended" is better. Depends on who CJ and scorekeeper are going to be this year, but in the past, right after the event in Ocean Shores, they went straight down to WSIKF. That meant is was difficult to receive the on-line registrations and do the printing between CESH and the comps at WSIKF. It's generally possible to register on the field Friday morning for the few that don't know about pre-registration, but it makes for a scramble for the scorekeeper. Bud should have the registration form up on the web site before too long. I see you're already on the mailing list. For those that aren't, visit the NWSKL web site, click on "Information" then "Member Information" and fill out the form. When the registration form is available, you should get an e-mail from Bud.

wen Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 I've lost some things on the field before too. I've lost some 1.5 handles, and a kite stake that I bought 3 days earlier! Wen, if you need some handles at WSIKF you can use my extra 1.5 handles. meh, i've lost 2 stakes in one day, one someone just gave me that day!
