First time out with a 6m PANSH Ace


First let me say it was a great time. I had some really good hang time and long distance jumps. Also, can't wait to go out again.

With all that being said...I am sore and bleeding. Got tossed down on my knees and elbows a bit. Learned just how important those new kite killers (won't be flying without them ever again)

Hopefully, I find someone to fly with. Until then, I am forced to go to a local park with other people around. After all I wouldn't want to be in a remote location with no one around in case I get hurt.

Also, sunscreen might be getting added to my bag.

Ditto! Add one helmet as well. Even static you can get your cranium cracked! Look into the Protec Ace, lightweight, comfortable, should help protect what's inside to keep making sure you make smart decisions!

Think a bike helmet would work?

I use a Triple 8 skateboarding helmet. Very comfy. A good bike helmet is way better than nothing. I used to fly Aces, but got beat up quite a bit by them, but I live in a gusty wind area and the Ace does not take kindly to gusts. They are a blast to fly when the wind is clean, but I would still wear a helmet, elbow and knee pads.

Kite Killers are always a good thing to have with you.

Have fun with that Ace. They are a blast...... Fly safe.
