T4-UK Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 Thank you for the welcome, excited to see the discussion threads. I am based the UK looking to find out more about the Kitelife group and grow my knowledge. I am sure a lot of my questions have already been answered somewhere in the community threads. Just need to surf around a bit. Looking to pick up my first Revolution, only flown stunts before. I met a guy on a beach in the UK 3 weeks ago flying one. Amazing control - first person I have ever met with one. I am working in Wisconsin at the moment so will try and buy one whilst the USA.

makatakam Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 Welcome to the forum. Frank Mots International Kite Festival will be held at Veteran's Park in Milwaukee, Wisconsin this weekend, September 7th and 8th, 2019. There are always Rev flyers at this festival. If you can join them, do so. There is no charge to attend. The festival starts at 11:00 am both days, but I recommend getting there before 9:00 am if you want to park close to the action. I won't be there this year for health reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T4-UK Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 Thank you so much for this suggestion, I had not heard of this so I will go and attend. Fingers crossed you are back to full health soon. Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T4-UK Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 Currently in Beloit, on the border with Illinois. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makatakam Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 It's about an hour and one-half drive from Beloit, about the same as I would travel from where I live. It is a well-attended fest, with many thousands of people, so get there as early as possible to get decent parking if you drive. You could ask if any of the Rev pilots have any they would care to sell. Most pilots have more than they need. If you see Colleen Baker, aka Jynx, while you're there tell her Mark says hello and mentioned that she may have more kites than she needs -- hint, hint. Have fun, smile and don't forget to breathe.
