Saving Airin !
Thanks to everybody who messaged Airin and got Her to stick with it!
It has been my experience that about a year or so in many folks have thoughts about tossing it all in. Your outpouring of messages saved this girl
from turning away.
You have done a terrific thing not just for Airin but for folks like me who enjoy flying with her so much !
Good Job Family !!!!

In 32 years of kickin' about on this planet I've been in some pretty ugly spots with some outstanding crews and I'm still here today as the direct
result of others caring, leadership and inspiration in times of personal struggle.
None of that compares to this loosely associated, wildly diverse, savagely independent group of kindred souls and the lengths you will go to in
helping each other achieve and maintain focus on what is truly important to the common interest of the group and the individual alike. Words like
Friend, Family, Community just don't seem adequate.
Kudos and the highest praise to you all. I am humbled to be in your presence.

Like divorce, it sorta smacks my "Oh No!" bone and makes me cringe, but if it makes you happy in the long run then give up kiting
Of course ... I'd prefer it if you stuck around 
Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

I agree with all the comments about the unity here. You never know when a little encouragement can drastically change someones life. Best of all,
encouragement, like a smile, is free to pass around. :bigok:

What a day it was! Crazy, like some sort of 'born again' kite buggy experience.
Awesome wind! Good friends! Beautiful day! Kites flying like a dream! Buggy rolling with joy and hopping for the sheer fun of it!
Made the right decision but couldn't have, probably wouldn't have, without you all!

There was a moment today that I saw Airin skipping toward her buggy like a kid . Kite in the air and that AOXO look !
I LOVE those days when I'm on the 15 and people are pushing it on 3.3m and smaller FB ! It was a great day for a comeback! :wee:
Like the wind Gods wanted to welcome you back to! :bigok:
