daily grind nice go on the CH15

nice 10mph side on in HOT coniditions , 5-7pm

Running the CH 15 on old 4 line set up, with internal settings 1/2 way on all straps.

auto zenith unfaltering, plenty of breeze for showy airs to keep the flow interesting.

pump free is nice, unpack and pack truly cat quick.

fun, easy and low key, cruised to a crowd free spot and session'd out til the water is gone!

with a TUBE (13m hybrid C) and VENOM 16 and CHARGER 15 all back to back sessions, here's a little remedial note

the tube and charger -turning speed and power and performance are almost identical both are FAST! EXCEPT the auto zenith charger is rock solid, it sits when and where you want it, the tube ain't so smart def needs a hand when idling.

the VENOM 16 big and slow BUT powerful and is the auto zenith KING.

and we're grinding right down here... on the daily grind

If you're going to start a new thread every day to tell us about your day kiting, wouldn't it make more sense to start a blog?

PHREERIDER - 28-7-2010 at 08:10 AM

i don't know...i don't have blogging senses.

wouldn't it be a klog ? its about kiting activity, not about me.

klog.... thats a type of foot wear.

it would be nice to string things to.. gether , really just looking to keep things in the correct topic kategories or kitegories ..you know what i mean.

the collective here is nice ,
pardon my lack of etiquette, my posting skills are alot like my social skills, challenging in every dimension.

i think i no, but i have know idea.

blogger.com <-- That should have everything you need to get started. Then you can just put a link in your signature pointing there and interested people could check daily or even get an rss feed. Let me know if you want/need any help, assuming that you're actually interested.

You could just start a thread that is all encompassing, kinda like the Sullivans Island thread became. Land or sea, new arc, old arc, inflatable.............. it's all part of the flow on the Phreeride.

PHREERIDER - 28-7-2010 at 09:12 AM

thanks Mav, my wife would be shocked. she has numerous, of which are exhausting to follow, even more so to maintain!

"in the virtual stream" i stay in the shallow end, i would regret the time suck they can have.




OK ...EVERYBODY BACK TO KITING! (that's why i'm here)

I don't mind the frequent threads. This is the only place close to a blog that I look at. We even have our own local kiting blog but I really don't look at it or add to it either.

Keep em coming Phree!
Updates on PKF means one less link I have to find:thumbup:

BeamerBob - 28-7-2010 at 03:14 PM

Yeah, I'm not suggesting a separate blog address. But one comprehensive Phree thread would have it all in one place. Nothing new or webbish to learn.

tridude - 28-7-2010 at 03:37 PM

whats a blog? Is that something like computer twitter................................:duh::duh:

I like the Phree press in its current state..........................

borntofli - 28-7-2010 at 04:10 PM

Keep posting where you are... I always look forward to the daily grind........

Kamikuza - 28-7-2010 at 06:06 PM

Agree. I like reading these log type posts.

Yep...keep the daily threads coming...though, I still don't get how you can kite so much ;-)....what's your secret? Retired? Self made millionaire? Cool wife?...or all of the above...whatever the case may be...props to you for keeping the stoke alive!

PHREERIDER - 29-7-2010 at 07:04 AM

i like the forum set up, simple, easy, nice minimalist info-user-supplied/generated content, and creates "something" in a virtual world from a collective of interested parties without typical $ pressure. $...hard to completely avoid, but here AT LEAST we have some sort of responsible, honest, fellowship for an ultra niche sport.

grateful for the PKF AND ITS ORIGINATOR.

i'm no blogger, my 2nd person fragmented writing is the expression of riddles, metaphors and irony that demand the brain be really ON to read. it my have creative elements but well written , it ain't. this lexicon butcher phlows like that.

its just me, exhausting for those around me , but pheeding phreedom i phind phew phriends. mother nature has yet to complain, though she punishes me on occasion, i just keep coming back for more.

and more is coming , from mundane to magic!

grateful for the interest
