I'm even more hooked now (is that even possible?) Yesterday we had a sustained 14-16 mph wind after about a week of nothing so I just had to unpack
the kite. I was a bit nervous at first since my first experience with this kite in similar conditions was less than favorable, but with all the
practice sessions I got in after that day I launched anyway. As soon as that nylon hit the sky I knew it was going to be a great day! Long story
short:
I flew. Several times. The kite kept trying to loft me so I just went with it. Slowly I started jumping with it and before I knew it, I was at least 5
feet off the ground and landing smoothly! I know these jumps aren't huge, but to me...they felt amazing! I can already feel the hook set deeper now!
Lol!
I used to pray for a steady 8-10...now I want 14-16!!!
