riffclown Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 @esinger I've been told nevermore for the 350# and 250#. Not sure about the 50# and 100#. Now that being said.. of the 100#.. What do you need?. I have one 1000' spool of 100# I haven't touched yet. Plus i have the 240' quad lineset I haven't chopped yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riffclown Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 No, but I'm willing to possibly share some of it.. What are your needs?.. I have a few linesets I need to make as well.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinger Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Okay, well I really want a 120' dual line set of 100#. So what about one leg of the 240' quad set you haveSent from my [device_name] using http://KiteLife mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barresi Posted February 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 I can’t speak for them but my brief interactions with Shanti recently indicate that 50# and 100# are back on the menu but since they don’t sell direct retail, it’ll take a minute for retailers to restock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 240 set was a bear to get equalized due to the length.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Clay Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Hmm... I’m in the market for another 120’ 100# quad set. A Wind of Change told me it would be available in January, but I haven’t checked back with them.Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Klaiber Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Me too, 120’ quad set - if you have it. A new set for the week is a lovely thought!Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffclown Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 OK, before this goes any further. A quad set of 120' takes 486 feet of line. you only get 2 sets out of 1000'. and that leaves enough for an additional short set of dual lines. When Eric said 120' Dual I realized that IF I could swing that it would be about my limit. I only have the one spool of 1000' that I purchased to make myself a few sets including a short set of 40ft and a 80ft. I don't have enough to offer especially if 120' linesets are the desired length.. At this point, I'd say, check with Eliot or Kent as to availability of bulk line. I don't have enough to share that much and was considering loaning a set if needed. Sorry but this well doesn't have that much water. @esinger has dibs on a 120' dual set IF I can swing it. Outside of that, Eliot or Kent are probably your best choices.. Skybond is getting hard to find. If you find 1000' rolls of 350# anywhere, PLEASE let me know. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esinger Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 @John Barresi Thanks for the heads up on 50# and 100# Skybond. I'm going to call a couple of shops tomorrow and see what the availability is. @riffclown if I can get hold of some bulk line from a kite shop, I'll be all set. Thanks! Just FYI, I'm considering getting a room at Owen's motel in Nags Head for Friday night, I'd rather do that than drive Saturday morning from Greensboro to the clinic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinger Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 I was checking my the website of the management company for the rental house. They are showing 2 indoor clay tennis courts that can be reserved. https://www.corollalightresort.com/corolla-light-resort-tennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barresi Posted February 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 $15 an hour?? Can we be them both for a couple hours on Saturday night, and maybe one court mid-week? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji3] Sounds good to me! Maybe the person that has setup the rental can double check with the management company about hours available, fees, etc..Sent from my [device_name] using http://KiteLife mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
