my ace and my brother's coming... bringing his 3m legend. Should be an awesome time :roll: kiting... then breakfast, then i'm dropping him off at

Now that's some crazy shiite there.DAKITEZ - 29-10-2008 at 07:51 PM
We have not had wind here in weeks ... at this point if I knew there was going to be wind at 4:30 am I would be there too.flexiblade - 29-10-2008 at 08:08 PM
strap on you crap DAKTEZ because here comes the wind - the storm front should be starting around 11am and peak at 5pm - there may be more moisture
down in the delta but there will definitely be wind.PHREERIDER - 30-10-2008 at 07:05 AM

done it hundreds of times
plus it really opens up the day ....TO DO IT AGAIN!.Bladerunner - 30-10-2008 at 03:38 PM

That's the idea :tumble:f0rgiv3n - 31-10-2008 at 07:51 AM
yeaaaaaaaaa!!!:cool2: Well made it out there around 4:45... at first not a lot of wind so I pulled out my blaze II to see if I could figure out how to
get it all rigged up the first time... Got it rigged but there was ABSOLUTELY no wind... my bro and i were like frick... great, we wake up for no
wind?! It said there was supposed to be wind!!
So after messing around with the blaze II we decide to pull out the ace since it's low wind...t he ace excels in low winds.... we pull it out and the
wind starts to pick up... LIKE WAY PICK up. I start to skud and as soon as that happens I pull out the good ol' "hey, watch this..." FAMOUS LAST
WORDS!!! Just as i bring it up to 10 to go to 2 and a little jump action the wind picks up and i got lofted about 7 ft
anyways, didn't redirect very well and came down pretty quick :P all's good but we packed the ace away right after that... then the 3m legend and had
some dang good sessions with that on the board.
NOTHING BETTER!!! I gotta tell you, i woke up this morning not even feeling tired!!!!!:wee:kiteNH - 31-10-2008 at 08:10 AM
Hey, you got your depower! And didn't have to give up your other kite either? Excellent. That thing should be awesome on snow this winter and with
your board.f0rgiv3n - 31-10-2008 at 08:19 AM
:D!!! Yeah, i am so stoked. I got rid of my beamer but was able to keep my ace. I kinda was able to work it since my bro has a 3m and I figured
whenever there is a need for a 3m he'll be flying with me anyways. :P_____ - 31-10-2008 at 08:23 AM
Did you bust out the Blaze?f0rgiv3n - 31-10-2008 at 08:43 AM
Tried to! I did at the beginnin' but there was a whole 1mph of wind... So basically I was running backwards to get the damn thing to fly even a
little bit :P. We worked it for awhile and it flew for a total of maybe 30 seconds once! :P Then we packed it up and went on to the ace. I'll write up
a review based on my opinion about it as soon as i get a good chance at it with some decent winds ._____ - 31-10-2008 at 08:51 AM
