A Symphony 2.2.4 WILL pull a buggy. Weldingod said we got as fast as 26MPH. He let me try his yellow buggy..3shot - 28-9-2013 at 04:27 PM
That is great!! It kills me that I was not able to be there with you guys.......... riffclown - 28-9-2013 at 04:52 PM
A little helmet cam footage from today when I was in observer mode.
HotAir was there, another of our friends from work showed up as we were starting down the beach. Once I get the other videos edited, I'll try to get
it posted. It's pretty jumpy and I guess I hold me head at a strange angle a lot..3shot - 28-9-2013 at 05:07 PM
That wind was stout huh?
Little kites rule!!! :evil:riffclown - 28-9-2013 at 05:31 PM
Yes they do!!
I flew the Crossfire 2M for a bit but decided on the Symphony since I was far more comfortable with it.WELDNGOD - 29-9-2013 at 06:51 AM
Man I'm sore...It was a great downwinder day ! I tried a few times to work upwind but it was too much work for next to no speed. So my lovely wife
took on shuttle driver yet again...Dang,I'm a lucky dude!
Wind was NE @15-25 with gusts to 35,not a lot of hardpack showing @ Low tide, but enough.
So , I convinced Riff to do a downwinder. He flies 4 line good enough to do a downwinder. I told him that the lil symphony would do the job,and was
I right! For his first time in the seat , he did an awesome job. Now ,to get some performance in his hands.... :alien:
I apparently set the gopro to the multi photo mode when I turned on the cam for Riffs first run ,all I got was 5 pics of me turning on the camera. Sorry Riff..
3shot,that had better have been one doozy of a wedding,cause you missed a great kiting day. Heck ,I would have missed my own wedding, if it had
blown like that .riffclown - 29-9-2013 at 07:08 AM

No problem whatsoever. We just keep flying. Pictures and videos are just bonuses. :-)
