Faster turning than your sports, similar bar feel and same depower. Little less power by size because of the loss of projected area. You have to fly the kite a little more than the sports, to get the most out of the kite. Less park and ride and more work it for performance. I liked the kites, so did...

Always handy to have a knife to hand when you want to kill your husband....
Nice write up Patty, did Dean tell you it was a spleene board that really got him going at the beginning.
What are you finding the toughest thing? What's you favourite thing?
See you guys in one week, yea.

Jerry, it's a growing and very distinguished club. Never has the AARP had so many suave new ( ? ) members

Just a " bit" cooler

We need Patty to post some of her thoughts while learning. Been a long time since someone let us all share the experience of the fun and frustration of learning.

What a fun day for you...enjoy it

Dean. We'll be there a week on Sunday, it'll be nice to catch up, it's been a while.

Spoke to Rich yesterday, kites should be there any day.
I hope you're getting good wind, when do you head back, Dean?

Superior surf systems ,john Abrahams in Duluth. I'm sure Nate Borer can help you too he's repping a line.

Dean...I'm like you, switch the phone on when I want to call someone, I hate the bloody things.
I guess Pattys goofy footed, way to go, expect to see you jumping by the time we get there April 10th.

Metal hooks in the roof.

By Hudson it's fully open

.....and the winner of the " I've got the biggest balls, but that's funny , I can't find them any more " trophy goes to Jon and Joe.

Funny thing is if you say either name " Jon " or " Joe" time after time really quickly, it sounds just like shivering!.

Put wax on it. Sat in the water have the board in front of you pointed in the direction you're going to go, put your feet up so your heels are on the board and water start. Two gybes. 1. Bring the kite up to 11.30 and switch your feet so you're riding toeside, make the turn with the kite and ride ou...

Chad...I've lost your #, I was sure I put it in my phone.
Can you e mail it to me sblain@frontiernet.net

must be mighty crowded with those commandos running around in your shorts...

I thought the only time any of Jims kites flew was when he was tangled up in them....
Side note...how are the fingers?.

Watching Leroy and Miramendes in the big air contest was one of the highlights of the trip for me. Insane.... I expect to be at the round up. Nancy and I will be there april 10 thru 23rd for fun. Then I'll go back down for the round up for work, Ozone will have all their new toys ( 3 new kites ) ava...

One of your last posts was about Pat learning to water start, hows she doing with it? Enquiring minds want to know.....
