Dano Wright Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 went to the park at Fulton Harbor, slight breezes, but enough to launch rev I [one of my favs] flew under the street ghts for a hour or so ,, winds would crash, dropping the kite periodically, county deputy stopped to ask "you ok?? as i was sitting in chair with kite flat on ground--- "just flying my kite and texting my pals" --- he was shocked -!!- should have told him i was a certifiable windjunkie and needed my head examined!!????LOL-- a good spot to fly on 60 footers, breezes usually in over the harbor and boats a little dirty but manageable -- Quote
John Barresi Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 Thanks for sharing this... What were you flying? And, any chance you'd be up for adding it to www.kitemap.org with a disclaimer about the field space and conditions? Quote
Dano Wright Posted October 28, 2011 Author Report Posted October 28, 2011 sure -- will add to kitemap. -- will add the Rockport Beach Kite Circle as well [designated kite sports area within park]-- BTW was flying a REV I with lite upper frame, 60 foot lineset, extended handles with adjusters, lite breezes, no groupies!?!?!?
