Nick Russell Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 This drawing is for a handy little gadget, a Weather Flow Wind Meter. Works with iPhones and most android devices with a free app you download. No batteries required. Entry is via the standard "I'm in" phrase. Winner will be determined by RNG on 8/14/15. entry number determined by order of entry. Good luck! Standard Karma Note from the ModeratorsThis is a Karma Drawing. The winner of the drawing is expected to pay it forward by offering their own prize for the next drawing. Please do not enter unless you are willing to offer your own prize, preferably not the prize you just won. Drawings should be open for entry approximately 2 weeks, and the next drawing should be posted as soon as possible to keep the Karma rolling.These drawings are run by and for KiteLife members. The moderating team only ensures that your drawing post contains all of the pertinent information (drawing date/time, adequate prize description, drawing rules) before approval.If you are a KiteLife forum member from the US or Canada, you are eligible to enter. You do not have to be a paid subscriber. Members from Canada, Alaska, and Hawaii are welcome to enter the Karma drawings provided they are willing to pay half of the Karma prize shipping cost.The method and timing of the payment will be agreed upon between the two parties after the drawing for a particular prize.Here is the link to the original Rules and Guidelines thread: http://kitelife.com/forum/topic/5426-rules-and-guidelines-please-read/The mechanism for the drawing itself is entirely at the discretion of the person offering the prize. In the past, entry number has been determined either by order of entry or by the post number in which the member declares entry into the drawing. The drawings have been performed using the RNG method (http://www.random.org/sequences/) or by choosing the numbers out of a hat (I believe an adorable daughter did the picking in that scenario). The only requirement is that the method of selection is clearly spelled out in the drawing post.Entry into the drawings is done by STARTING a post in the drawing thread with the entry phrase chosen by the drawing host (Traditionally "I'm in", but "I LIKE" has been used as well). In order to remove any confusion or misinterpretation, only entries with posts that START with the phrase will be considered. As with all other KiteLife drawings, bantering is encouraged. This is for fun after all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepinjeepin Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 I'm in! I am so totally in. I about turned my 4D inside out earlier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Russell Posted August 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Wow, only one entry so far? I guess I'll have to choose a better prize next time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepinjeepin Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Go ahead and call it Nick. If I had it on Saturday I might would have known what my actual wind speed on the boat was before I broke my line and crashed into the lake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbailey49 Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 The summer doldrums are upon us, gentlemen. Things take a bit of time to get up some speed. People aren't on a frequently (they're out flying), and it doesn't go as fast as December. There is nothing wrong with the prize, Nick. I would be in if I didn't already have 2 different anemometers. Just give it time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobB Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 I don't think this fancy plug-in will work with my AARP flip-phone. Yeah, I know, a tech guy that still uses a 'flip-phone'? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Dowler Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Prize is good, but I have a wind indicator built in - my neck hair and ears!! Years of flying have gotten it pretty much in tune with what I do. Carry on! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred van Curen Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 I feel with NOT HAVING NICK in on this one we all have a good chance to win. O.K. With that out of the way,this is a really nice offer Nick. One even if you have one now a back up is good idea, battery's do quit after a while, and we don't always have spare one with us. GOOD LUCK TO ALL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amexpmh Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 I think it is a great prize. But I abstain because I already have one and love it. I carry my phone (non flip style) and pop in the Weather Flow. Nice easy to read display. You can log the reading for your records or better yet email the results to your buddies who are working rather than flying.

If you want to be entered you need to post "I'm in" and be willing to host the next drawing. -B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Russell Posted August 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Congratulations Josh! You're the winner. I'll PM you for delivery information.

jeepinjeepin Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Thanks guys. I'll get the next one up soon. It will most likely be the Red/Black/White Premier Impulse 1.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbailey49 Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Thank you, Nick for offering the great prize. I will say again, there was nothing wrong with this prize and no reason for you to feel you need to offer something better WHEN you win again. There's a lot going on during the summer and traffic to the website is typically down a bit. The karma will continue to roll. Congratulations, Josh on your win. I'm locking this one down. Josh's drawing is posted. It is as predicted and pretty good. -B 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
