Here's a picture of mine getting ready to lift off in the front yard.  My first ever attempt at one hand flying a dualie.  Short lines are going to make taking a picture a bit problematic.  Notice our cat "Polecat" laying in the drive observing.

First picture in the air.  Shot with my Nikon D3200.

Not a great shot, but a great moment.  SHBKF

This kite is going to remain assembled for some time.  At five feet tip to tip I will be able to easily carry it fully assembled in any vehicle with the lines attached , ready for action.  The materials, hardware & assembly are superb.  I am very impressed.  This one will no doubt have a very special place in my KiteLife.

Here it is down in the Kite Dungeon getting acquainted with another recent arrival, The Jester by RiffClown.  The beginning of a long friendship for sure.  SHBKF

Mine is #12.  You were pretty fast on the draw to get a single digit.

And this is why we call her Polecat.  Two years ago she spent several hours on top of this 25 foot light pole, until the hail & thunderstorm arrived about 3 AM.  It was her first night at her new foster home.  SHBKF

Finally got them. emoji847.png couldn’t be happier with product quality. Got #6 and my sons was purchased after the first 50 were sold. Thanks JB for the kites and the tutorial videos definitely make it easy to get started.
