i have a few cones i can bring. no not the ice cream kind. LOL

Jaymz - 20-9-2011 at 04:07 PM

That's quite a list. Some great ideas.
Another no wind favorite would be RC cars, planes and heli's. Bring'm if you got'm. I'll bring the Traxxis E-Rustler and I know Konrad just got a Heli he's dying to fly.

shehatesmyhobbies - 20-9-2011 at 04:18 PM

Quite a list indeed! I try to keep mine to fly my kite ride my buggy! Shoot the !$@# a little and then fly my kite and ride my buggy! Eat then shower, go to bed and start all over again!

I will be bringing my flow board as well and I will also be trying to conquer Snowspiders unicycle again!

Kober - 20-9-2011 at 04:45 PM

RC you say ........
Yes ...... I just got and same night I just destroy my first heli ......
5 min = $200 ......
..... Kiting is way easier .......

WELDNGOD - 20-9-2011 at 04:47 PM

Rich, I'm bringin my longboard too!

shehatesmyhobbies - 20-9-2011 at 04:57 PM

Kober, that is why I sold all my r/c stuff! Much easier to keep a heli if you buy one of the air hogs!

Sweet deal Donnie! I know I will not be able to keep up with you!

HQ Kites will be driving up with a van full of kites for demo. If you are traveling from some distance out and don't have room for all contingencies...hit me up. Most likely will have full quiver of every kite in every size.

flyjump - 22-9-2011 at 08:17 AM

I will be giving demonstrations for peter lynn kites, but i don't have anything for people to demo while we are out there. i'm only bringing my chargers. They wanted me to have charger2 protos for the event so that people could demo them, but they don't have them ready yet for north america

ragden - 22-9-2011 at 08:48 AM

Some truely inspired (and insane) ideas proposed here. Quite curious to see how many of these become reality (I'm guess not many, but only time will tell).

I'll be bringing my buggy, a few boards, and kites... My plan... fly my kites for as long as I can... Make some speed runs, power slide a little bit.. and just have a grand ole' time...

;)

WELDNGOD - 22-9-2011 at 03:17 PM

It's gonna be great to REALLY fly w/ everyone. In the spring ,I had my shoulder surg. ,and could only fly a 2.5m.

kiteplace - 22-9-2011 at 07:59 PM

I have a full set of the HQ Beamer Vs for demo.
Also a PL Charger 10 and 15 available for demo and for sale.
I have a new Charger 12 blue/sea blue if any one needs one for their quiver.
I'm stoked for another great WBB experience!

doneski - 7-10-2011 at 06:50 AM

My Personal Events:
Try different ways to tune Peter Lynn ARCs
1) Venom: shorten front strap to improve bottom end. Anyone have mods I can look at? Any Hyper Venoms?
2) Charger: shorten middle strap to improve auto zenith and decrease wing clap
Try different buggies- want something that will handle more speed than a PL folding buggy
Try to get into the water

I'll join you on #2. The 15m Charger has been tormenting me forever with the clap. I heard shortening the center strap 4-5 cm. is the cure. We'll see.
I may have missed it, but did anyone mention having a SCUD race or the longest scud? Good fun. I'm in if the winds are up.

XdisasterXdrewX - 7-10-2011 at 09:11 PM

I am mad at you for posting this.
It makes me even more disappointed for not going :/

Chicagokitejumping - 7-10-2011 at 10:30 PM

Well everybody is going , then we are going in car from Chicago 900 miles

rocfighter - 9-10-2011 at 03:39 AM

Jaymz. Do we need to scudd on our feet? The Kidd has scudded from the wall to the water at Wildwood on his chin!!:o Not recomended just saying!!:lol:

XdisasterXdrewX - 9-10-2011 at 09:39 AM

am I the only one that cannot load any pages after 1?
On every top if I click 2,3,4 etc. it just reloads page one.
Ive tried changing the URL to "page=2" and the same thing happens.

Yes, it's just you. Apparently you have offended the feline deities of the forums.



Seriously, it is a glitch in the calculations that the forum uses to calculate the number of posts that should be displayed per page.

Go into your profile and change the value in the posts per page (#2, below) entry



Crank it up to something like 100 or 200.

Once you have appeased the the furry gods thusly,



you should be able to



without further problems.

ATB,
Sam
