Where to fly in Florida

[Guest Gary the Rev]

I need somewhere to fly in Florida.....doing the parks,etc,,,as i have qualified for Eurocup in September (Cervia in Italy) i will need a day or two too practise, so the question is...i would like a beach, not to far from Kissemee...a couple of hours drive will do.....and if you fancy flying a Rev with a UK Champion ...just let me know guys......if you need some coaching, i would be more than happy to help you

Thanks in advance..

A welcome I wish you, RevMaster.

http://maps.google.com/ must you try.

A view through the eyes of an electronic metal bird will you see.

May the Force be with You!

Congratulations and welcome!

Italy, huh? I 'll have to look into what kite festivals are there. My daughter will be there for 3 years and we'll be planning a trip. If you get a chance, bring back any info in english.

You must be inland in Florida if you need parks. (?) It's surrounded with beaches you know.

Most beaches are only 1.5 hrs away from Kissimmee.

I used to live there, but was not flying at the time so I can't give you the "inside" scoop. You could start at Cocoa beach and go south from there. Some of the beaches are going to be a little less touristy than others.

[Guest Gary the Rev]

Thanks guys for your co-operation, yes i was thinking of Cocoa Beach as my initial stop, whats best though for winds, Gulf coast or Atlantic, i'm there from 29th August for 2 weeks ( i know it's the hurricane season as well , vented Rev then!!!).

Be great to meet up with some of you for a fly, maybe at the weekend??

For hurricane season, let me suggest the Ultra Vented Rev.

Its a 1.5 made of nothing but vent sail cloth, framed in rebar.

It would be great to meet you Gary. How about coming to WSIKF Long Beach International Kite Festival. We'll all be there.

3,990 kites in the air at one time. I think that is their record. And we have a Rev field set up to give free lessons and meet people. You'd like it.

If not this year, maybe next?

I've flown on Cocoa Beach before... Wind usually isn't bad, but the beaches are so darned narrow. Good thing you can wade out so far.

Wow, that sounds cool, I think I'll try and pop by!

Hey, if you don't make it monkey boy, then I get any kites Lolly sends to you.

The gulf is going to be a little more of a drive for you. Not quite as close to Kissimmee.

Too bad I am over here on the west coast doing a festival, it would be fun to fly around my old stomping grounds.

Have a great time!!

Hi guys, back from vacation....nice time thanks!!

Met up with some of the guys from Hawaiian Kiteworks, Randall and his boyz, had a great time flying with them outside the Festival Mall, along International Drive, we flew right outside the Vans skatepark

I brought a little wind with me from the UK which seemed to help

I don't know how you guys handle the heat

If anyone ever goes to Florida checkout Randall's shop.........really nice!!!

Thanks for a great time!!! and "have a nice day"
