John Barresi Posted March 18, 2015 Report Posted March 18, 2015 Looking to expand your dual line kite skills? This is a great chance for anyone to spread their wings, from beginning flight to advanced trick sequences, recreational or competitive, all skill levels are welcome! Schedule is 10a-4pm on both Saturday and Sunday, with a general "Dual Line 101" portion first thing Saturday morning in which we'll cover all the little set up details and general equipment knowledge that often hold fliers back before they even get in the air. Technique highlights: - Multiple landing and relaunch - Essential precision / control - Slack line / freestyle tricks - Team / pair flying - Tuning / settings This is a BYOK (bring your own kite) affair, our job is to help you be successful on the kites you already own! For the team exercises however, we're working on securing sufficient "beater" kites and lines for students to use. Registration for this clinic is $125 per person (12 STUDENTS MAXIMUM), includes all portions of the clinic - we hope to see you there! Student Name: 2 Quote

John Barresi Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Posted March 31, 2015 Please note, this event has been rescheduled for May 9-10 due to another engagement that I just couldn't pass up in Shanghai. Hope to see you here! Quote
makatakam Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 TK won't be happy about the "engagement". 1 Quote
John Barresi Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Posted April 1, 2015 It's a paying engagement, she's happy. Quote
makatakam Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 I meant about you being engaged to someone else. Ha-ha. Quote
Tmadz Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Curse geography!!!!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Cheer up mate. It's the physical universe you're mad at. Don't be mad at your knowledge of how far away you are. We don't want you clueless. 1 Quote
SparkieRob Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Not even mad really. More glad that others can get the opportunity for quality instruction. With kites, I think everybody wins. When I win the lottery, I'm flying JB and TK out here to Oz. A clinic and a tour. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote

I want to come to OZ......Hmmm - long trip for an "old fart" - send pics.............. But what I really want to know, is WHEN, are we going to have the "East Coast Ocean Shores Dual (or quad) Line Clinic (we just get no respect over here) 2 Quote
RobB Posted April 2, 2015 Report Posted April 2, 2015 There's more kiting action down by you Nick... the kiting scene up North is just about dead... there hasn't been an event at Liberty State Park in a couple of years, and the Riis park festival died almost 10 years ago. I keep hoping the interest will come back. 1 Quote
John Barresi Posted April 3, 2015 Author Report Posted April 3, 2015 Nick... I just need a minimum of six interested (committed) fliers at $150 each for the weekend to cover all expenses, and I can make it happen. You, Marshall (who is already nudging me) and... ? Get me a solid roster of fliers to start the ball rolling! If we work it right, I could also possibly do back to back weekends - dual, then quad. 1 Quote

Dave362 Posted April 21, 2015 Report Posted April 21, 2015 all signed up. I'm goin' to Ocean Shores! John, this is the first time I've signed up for anything like this. Let me know if you need anything else. Otherwise, I'll see you on the beach! 1 Quote
makatakam Posted April 21, 2015 Report Posted April 21, 2015 Don't leave your Rev at home. Kite clinics have been known to deviate from the original course now and then, and since you're new to Revs it can't hurt to shake John down for any bit of info and demo you can get. 1 Quote
Dave362 Posted April 21, 2015 Report Posted April 21, 2015 Mark, that is great advice! I will take it. Good call! Quote
Dave362 Posted April 26, 2015 Report Posted April 26, 2015 I just read Ocean Shores Kites sells Skyburner. this is seriously bad news for my bank account... 4 Quote
John Barresi Posted April 30, 2015 Author Report Posted April 30, 2015 Woohoo, back stateside, let me know if anyone has questions. 1 Quote
