Tmadz Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Neat. He certainly looks happy. That's the hook being set. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynhi Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Nice kite, and your son has skills! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobB Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Wow, it took me a while before I could fly like that ! Nice flying... I've been working with my son a little on the quad lines, but he still has a bit to learn. We're still at this stage... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PereiraM Posted October 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Ok so we had a nice event yesterday for the Emerald Coast Kiteflyers Club and Sebastian got his hands on the lines again. Chuck and John were helping him with a little team flying. I think it was just getting him used to other kites being right on top of his but I think he did pretty good. He can not wait until this Saturday for Flying High over the Harbor kite festival. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PereiraM Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 So Sebastian and I got to go fly the Revs today. He is really starting to get it. He was working on some Bicycle rotations today. A little brake happy but he is working on it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobB Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 I can not wait until my son can fly solo, and I can fly along side of him.Right now he's at the point where it's just as much fun to fly as crash. Wish there was a four line equivalent to the Prism Quantum... a bullet-proof kite that you could death dive into a parking lot, and fly away laughing! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PereiraM Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Yes Rob I think a Rev with the Quantum's indestructibility would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevRookie Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 I've done horrendous things with/to my Flexfoil Sting. It has the quad style handles, so the muscle memory that you start building is still applicable when you move on up. It is the kite I hand to strangers and with all the bashing, I don't think it has blown a stitch yet. I've been very impressed with the design, materials and build. I have heartily recommended it as a quad experience trainer before, and I still do. The whole kit comes in a nice backpack that lives under the seat in the car so it's available anytime. It was one of the better $60 I've spent, and my Rev's thank me for letting the Sting take the hook out of the learning curve. Posted 15 January 2014 - 11:28 AM http://www.kiteland....y.asp?cc=022827 Alex at Kiteland in Victoria BC Canada has sold me two kites now. The first was a Prism 4D for light winds a couple of years ago. When we were there at Christmas and he discovered that I was in the Rev world now and I was moaning about broken sticks in my learning curve, he convinced me that I needed a Flexfoil 1.7 Sting because it was quad line but had nothing to break - a trainer to save the Rev. Given the cost of replacing rods, even my partner could see the logic of this! So Alex is a great salesman who knows his kites (even though the store has to sell other things to stay afloat these days) and works with people to help them find what they need - or didn't even know they needed!
