I heard the other night that Chris Philichi (aka "sand flea" here) passed away in late November 2023.
Chris lived in Oregon and was a common face to see at Sunset Beach (SOBB). One of the most friendly guys. Upbeat and always ready to ride his kite
buggy. I know he made it to several of the NABX and IBX over the years.
I do not know any details at this time. I only saw it on Facebook and thought I would relay it back to where it all began for many of us in the PNW.
I will try to update this post if I get any information.
He will be greatly missed.
May the winds be with you my brother.

Always sad when we lose a member of the kiting family. I hope Chris has good winds on the other side.
Enjoy every day you wake up folks. One day we all run out of time.
