I just ordered my first kite a Beamer III 3.0m.
From what I read here and there this should be a pretty good trainer and last me a while after as well.

I'm going to have to start scouting some training grounds. If any one has any ideas in the eugene area or possibly around florence, I'd love to hear about them.

Better yet if there are any newbies that wanna pull one up sometime that would be good, too!

Cheers!

It looks like A few folks will be heading to Seaside on the long weekend at the 1st of July. If you managed a trip up it would be a great place to get started. There will be plenty of help and plenty of kites to try !

I'll be there with bugs and an ATB as well as lots of kites to try. I'll be there on the long weekend. Getting into town friday, leaving some time monday. Looking forwards to riding with a bunch of people again.

Look for the guy with the white VW golf pulling a trailer. PKD kites in the sky.

I'll see if I can make it out that weekend! What time of day to people usually Fly or does it not matter that much? Probably with the low tide eh?

I'm Jonesin' for my Kite.. Can't wait to give it a shot. Found a couple places that might be good to train with around here.
