Finally complete...

[John Barresi]

Hello my friends,

I am incredibly excited to announce that the complete collection of Stunt Kite Quarterly (SKQ) is finally converted to full color PDF files, all 14 issues are available on line, and 100% free of charge!

As some of you may recall, SKQ was published from 1988 to 1993 and featured some of the most specialized sport kite reporting, photos, tips and news in the industry during those years.

I would like to consider this a tribute to the original publisher, Cris Batdorff... His obvious love of kiting and skills as a journalist enhanced the sport kite scene immeasurably during it's hey day, and the impact he had on our community will never be forgotten.

Check it out today!

Tremendous thanks go out to Bob and Susan Hanson for allowing us to republish this historical resource completely free of charge, making it available to the entire world 24 hours a day... Their generosity is deeply appreciated.

We hope you enjoy their gift!

Now you're making me blush!

Kitelines should be next if all goes well... Published from 1977 to the late 90s, there are something like 6 or 7 times as many Kitelines issues than there were of SKQ! With an incredible variety of kiting information, comparisons and plans, we really hope we can get this new project rolling as soon as possible!

We posted the SKQ news over on GWTW's Forum as well, any of our subscribers who would like to make a follow up posting there could perhaps encourage others to sign up as well, emphasizing the long-term benefits Kitelife has to offer!

Either way it's all good, our mission is clear.
