Re: drones on calhoun

I do not know about other bigger drones, but the Phantom One Drone that I have has plastic propellers. I heard of a kite hitting one like I have. It just bounced off and neither kite or drone were damaged as far as I know. Now with that said there are bigger more expensive drones with more than just...

Re: 12m or larger as a second kite for beginner quiver

If it was me I would have a 10 Rally and a 14 Rally. The 14 is my most used kite. It is great to learn with a bigger kite with depower and smaller waves... The 14 is big, but still turns well, easy to relaunch and great in gusty conditions...

Re: Kite Island

after being there since 12:30 I packed up and headed out before sunset. I had to help Eric get unstuck in the snow before I left. There were a few riders that came out of Deephaven.
We were kiting on the main lake beyond kite island... So you would not see us from your location.

Big wind to the SW heading to Waconia

The wind is not up yet, but it is close. The low needs to pull up to the north for the westerly’s to kick in.
Anyone else heading out? On-shore conditions and some bigger gusts, so make sure your skill level is up for the challenge.
