John Barresi Posted November 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 This is going to be an AWESOME post-Xmas prize for some lucky winner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeepster Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 Okay! This is a dual line kite that I could enjoy. I'm sure Susan and Dave would want me to have it John ... just have a private talk with the RNG. Cheers, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirrom Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 This is great John. It's a dual line I could set up, put on auto pilot and do all sorts of tricks. I have been trying to do this on Lam's kites but it never works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baloo Posted November 27, 2010 Report Share Posted November 27, 2010 Wow, looks real cool. Sorry I meant, huh, don't suppose I will win this one either. See, I am trying to make out that I don't care again, just to fool the RNG. Clever, don't you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rendermaniac Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 This looks awesome! Thanks for all the great resources John! Whilst watching youtube I fell in love with Revolution Kites whilst watching your stuff, and I knew I had to turn to the "dark side". I'm almost sure I'm getting a B-Series for my birthday in January, but will just have to wait and see Well this is my first post...maybe the RNG will favour me???

dragonfish Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Alright, it took a while, but I finally got someone to help me out with this, and got some pictures too. So for those of you who were giving me a hard time in that other thread, I hope you are satisfied now. It was pretty awesome when we got it up. And almost from the get-go there were these 3 little boys who were extremely excited about it. They wouldn't leave until the wind died down enough that we couldn't easily relaunch. Once again, thank you Kitelife. (And yes, the grass is very dry at the Berkeley marina this year, for anyone who's wondering.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tmadz Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Yeah! that's neat. Get 'em hooked when they're young. The best part is when you hook 'em when they're older they become young. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Barresi Posted July 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 WOW - super bonus this weekend... Not only did we see Joanna (winner of the airplane kite), not only was she friendly and passionate about kites... She also jumped into some 4-person team with some of us "pros" and she kicked BUTT. Really, I don't often see someone digest and adapt to our team maneuvers so quickly. Truly impressive, great work Joanna - you're welcome on my team line anytime.

dragonfish Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Thanks for the compliment, John. I'd love to fly on your team line again. Thanks for getting me started on team flying. I sure learned a lot, and it's super fun too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
