John Barresi Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 Right, time for us to go big or go home... We're pleased to yet again announce the next prize being given away to our most appreciated supporters, the Kitelife Subscribers... For roughly 10 cents per day they play a major role in keeping KL growing in every way. Zen from Revolution Kites, a $440 value! This awesome low wind quad line kite is an original design by John Barresi and Bazzer Poulter! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbFXYrIlyss (color of prize as pictured) "When I fly the Zen in light winds I feel like I have something in my hands again with a sail that is full and ready to do anything - like I could do in a 6 mph wind with a 1.5 full sail race rod combo. The Zen performs graceful slides to hairpin turns to big noisy dive stops, all with very little effort.""Just the other day ... almost no wind ... I could hear people comments in the back ground.. but there is no wind... Is there a motor?? I just giggled to myself, carried on flying and thought to myself "Hey, there really isn't much wind is there." "The more time you spend with the Zen you really start to understand where the name comes from as you get into the zen state. All you're thinking about is your kite, and every bump and every little twitch in the wind you feel and adjust for... It really keep your mind and soul working..."

Our thanks, and the very best to you... Let the drooling begin! Hmmm, I need another Zen for a serious learner flier. I also need an Extra Vented to test... How to do it when funds are short?

Felix Felix, no whining or begging or pleading ... the bear has that approach all tied up and it doesn't work with the cold heart of the RNG. Well, for pennies a day, I get to dream for the next month ... Cheers, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love2fly Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Hey babe- Sweeeeeeet!!! This would be awesome to share when someone needs one for the afternoon (usually not too long as the winds tend to pick up after someone one up) Thanks for the opportunity.

Baloo Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 John, don't you dare be late in drawing this One, I am almost drowning in Droooooool allready. And if the RNG is not kind to me I am going to mail the Drool to it. Bear Drool is especially nasty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barresi Posted January 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 As it turns out, last minute development - it looks like I'll be on a plane on the 25th... I really will do my very best to draw that morning or that night, but it's a busy 3 days prior for me, please forgive me if I don't draw until the morning of the 26th. To make it up to you, I'll be sure and do an another prize drawing a bit sooner for the next round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBHinPhilly Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 So is there a need to sign up specifically here -- or does the fact that I am a member automatically enter me? Thx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barresi Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Hi Philly! A paid subscription is required to be eligible for prize drawings, but it's quite reasonable and gives access to our regular prize drawings (lots of great stuff) and all of our downloads including HD video tutorials. Info - http://kitelife.com/subscribe.php Subscription revenue helps us keep this site alive and growing, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBHinPhilly Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Thanks for the clarification. I already did the subscription back in October - I thought it made sense to support the magazine. But really wanted to ensure I was in this drawing as it is pretty spectacular.

John Barresi Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Awesome, thanks! I was looking at your post on my iPhone so I couldn't see your subscription status. Your support is most appreciated! Also to be clear, if you're signed up, prize entry is always automatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgewarden Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Awesome, thanks! Also to be clear, if you're signed up, prize entry is always automatic. However, prize winning is NOT automatic. (sniff sniff) I never win ANYTHING!!! Well, to be honest, I did get a year's subscription to KiteLife last year, and that counts as a nice prize. But I still want to throw a fit until I get a Zen!!! (Didn't work on my parents 60 years ago either. ) -Good luck to ya all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
