Well Gentlemen, Today I went out and tryed out the board and a new flying field. 45 acres of smooth groomed grass:wee:

Also had another huge discovery! When I got there I found 2 guys buggying with some 3-5m Ozone kites and a couple other guys static flying! I had no idea anyone else in this city even knew about flying! I was estacic, and of course I had to show em up by pulling out the PL Syn. :smilegrin:

Anyway, I got a video together, but for some reason, the quality isnt there. Ill figure it out and reupload it later.



Thanks,
Brian

Thanks All,

Was my only my second time on the board so, too bad I didn't get any of the nice static jumps though:lol:

Went and saw the Balloon Fiesta in Oct 2008 and had my kites and ATB with me but as luck would have it, rain, rain and more rain. Did get see some great hot air balloon action even though the grass had water standing on it. That is a primo spot. There is a guy named Dusty that sales kites there in ABQ that you should hook up with. Good luck! My son lives in ABQ but he is into snowboarding and not interested in kiting, figure that one out?
