eric67m Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Hello everyone. I'm from Monroe Washington. Started off with a couple of two line stunt kites. Then a symphony 2.2 hooked my power kite addiction. My dad grew up near Mike huff and we ran into him at ocean shores. I bought a 5 and 7 meter four line kites from him. Picked up a rev along the way. Also got a flex foil Navarro buggy. Now i have a pretty decent quiver of foils from 1.5 to a 12m peak single skin. This year I'm also adding a harness Always wishing for more wind... Eric Miller 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eric67m Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Where are the people on this forum located? Are they generally from the United states, Europe, Australia? I haven't seen a trend, but like many forums people come from everywhere for a common hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riffclown Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Good question. Judging from members that have pinned themselves, the predominate group is US kiters but Europe and Australia also have a strong showing. All 6 inhabited continents are represented, http://www.kitelife.com/forum/membermap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
