Welcome to the forum. different type of kite too. paraglider right? most of them do have lots of float at 30m.

That's Dennis,
He and his S.O. have came here from Easter Europe and brought along Skycountry www.skycountry.ca . They are from a paragliding background but have brought in some Skycountry kites as well. Tonya in particular is falling in
love with buggies.
If I'm correct Tonya will be joining the Vancouver crew at NABX. She won't have the new Uber thin racekites in on time but the Reflex is a unique kite
in many ways. Even if you don't have time to fly one you should take the time to look at the kite itself. The finish on the material is very slick .
I'm completely SOLD on whatever the tight mesh material on the vents is. I wonder if the Playa dust will even make it through :wow: Flexi should adopt
it !!!
I quick look at Skycountry kites up close is well worth the time ! They are a joy to fly as well. 
P.S. that's me with the yellow hoody :D

sweet, another pg pilot hits the forum. you gotta come down and soar our dunes. www.discoverparagliding.com
good to see you here!

Ken 3 posted the photo. He is a buggy nut :wink2:
Tonya is a PKF member and I know Dennis is a powerkitecanada member.
I'll be sure to mention the fun they can have.
Is there a good time for Dune soaring or could they combine it with SOBB ???
USA_Eli_A - 16-3-2008 at 11:52 AM
whenever the winds are west about 10mph, like today. the dunes offer sweet lift. you can fly them for about 3-6 miles either direction of launch, are
B in the s. jetty....
nw winds you can run down to 'kiwandis' or Sollie. Look for popcorn in the sky during Nw and there are tons of places to fly...
If you come to Sunset or anywhere in NW oregon bring the wings! Lets go fly!

I have booked a week off to attend this years SOBB (couldn't do or afford NABX, but next year for sure)
