Can I copy some of your list's and send it to Santa .As a newbie I only have two :)

Dont feel bad, im in the same position as you. All I have is a Nighthawk and a Techno Pro. And a Detonator, though I dont count that one too much as its a beginners learning kite.

Dang let me know if you want to get rid of that Omega. I have been dreaming for an older one to add to my bag!

BTW, add B series to my kite bag. Got my blue one yesterday. Set it up and all but decided against a snow covered field, didn't want to get it dirty from melting snow... sure does show signs of drool marks though!

Hi Stryker, long time no see. :)

Coming to Niagara Falls?

Hi John,

Yes it's been a while, since I've been in the forums. I have had more than my hands full over the past few months and haven't had the free time to spend in the forums as before.

I have however been flying as often as possible, mostly with my Desire UL's practicing flying multiples. Now I have to figure a way to fly 2 Revs simultaneously. :)

Not having a car sucks so getting to the Festivals has always been an issue and I hate to ask for a ride, even though I know the guys would gladly. That been said, don't count me out as I'm hoping I can convince a friend of mine who has some interest in kiting to go.

Now that a have a little more confidence in my 'abilities', I don't have a problem flying in front of people, especially when things go according to plan. As we all know, that doesn't always happen and we have to take that walk of shame. Not something I'm sure you're familiar with I'm sure.

Here are some of my videos flying my Desires to music to basic 'old school' "add lib routines":

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AoElvYRvUGk

Hopefully next summer I will have the confidence and abilty to fly 3 simultaneously. That is my goal.

Again I have to say, Thank You to You and all those other incredible flyers, including Carl Bragiel, Ray Bethel and Troy Gunn who continually give me inspiration to fly and better my skills.

I also have to mention Gustavo Di Si, for his very informative article on multiple kite flying.

There is so much for me to learn still and that keeps me very interested.
