Hibernating in Canada waiting for a whole lotta new ripstop and a hungry sewing machine. (Thought I'd un-hijack Goof's FS thread).
Nice phlossing job phree. I have to say I take pride in holding this piece of PKF family history. It inspires me to sew a patch of this bagged out
ripstop into the new kite....keep the blood lines pure ; )

flying bag o fun sometimes is only just a stitch away from resurrection

Ah yes, that brings back memories. Carltb Posted some nice vid of him flying this kite in the FS thread.

Got to say one thing. Getting back on here and connecting again with all you fine folks sure brings back some awesome memories.
Getting these kites ready for sale has been bitter sweet.
I definitely need to get out more this winter. Without having a good bit of snow under me I am still a bit gun shy after my NABX accident in 2012.
But the thrill is calling!
Believe it or not folks once the Phantoms are gone there will be only 2 arcs left in the quiver.
A 10m Vortex and a 15m Rasta Synergy.

I've got the 15m Rasta Synergy. Too scared to fly the thing though 
g00fba11 - 6-11-2014 at 09:26 AM
Some advice rolling in for you and jadog on the other thread. Keep that sweet gem.
IMHO it is one of the best kites ever produced!
Keep that one in your pocket.
Arcs are phenomenal kites.
On a board you need to keep that arc higher up in the window than you would in a buggy.
Send a U2U to Phreerider. I am sure he also would be more than happy to help as would Feyd. Both those guys got tons of time under arcs on
boards, skis etc.

I miss my venom. It handled great in the buggy. The only problem I had was lulls in my wind causing it to drop and twist if I didn't have enough
momentum in the kite. I found the overfly problem tough to predict and react to in my typical gust/lull wind. Probably just my inexperience.

Thanks goofball, you're right I know in my heart I need to keep that 15m Synergy, I'll be ready for it one day. Or get some clean wind, where I'm
sure it will be a different story and give me the confidence I need to be able to tame it in the gustier conditions!
The advice on the other thread looks awesome!

I was lucky enough to score the goofball brand new 16m VII via Stephan a few months ago. 
Sean, the 13m VII is being well cared for. I'm not sure, but I think the 13m may have been from the goofball stock as well if thats the one
Flyguy0101 picked up. Not 100% sure though.
Not hijacking, just keeping memory lane going here..

I am beginning to think I should have put the g00fba11 logo on the kites logo so I could track my babies.
I still can't believe I never took that one out of the bag but then again I did have 2 of those.
That's what happens when you got (**) kites in your quiver. Still gotta keep my high total a secret. :D:
