Nice. You don't often see video these days that was originally recorded on photo-film. Somebody spent some serious time making this.

That was taken the year after I started flying!!! Hadn't discovered the festivals yet, but those were some serious stacks of kites!!! A "blast from the past"!!!!

That was taken the year I started flying, actually attended my first Lincoln City event (OSSKC) in June of 1991.

Thanks for posting that video Chris.

My first Lincoln City festival was 1993 but that video brought back a lot of memories.

I remember those large spinsocks very well. Catch the Wind had a crew that put those up all the time.

That large SLK with the red roses on it looks like Deb's kite.

Used to see a lot of dual line stacks like that back in the 90's One guy used to fly his stack way up high above all the other sky laundry.

I remember those days, lots of stacks, ballet flying, many dual line teams, and new kite manufactures just starting out

I had been flying for 10 - 12 years by then, mostly Rainbow stacks, Hyper stack, Trilby's, and an Hawaiian (oh!, I still have them all)

Lots of teams, stacks and SPANDEX!
