Mood: Who stole my wind!?

!VIDEO! Flying in a blue (sky) dream.
Unexpected wind came up Sunday so I grabbed the youngest and hit the park. This was his 1st time on a quad line, and only his second time flying a
kite!
He's a natural, or maybe just picked up habits (good and bad) from dad?:singing::shocked2:
Had to put on Vimeo due to WMG...
http://vimeo.com/33154825
He is flying a 2m Buster3, I am liking this little kite more and more! I had it spinning like a Rev at one point, though that made it stall after 2
revolutions.. Little bit of me on the 8m Pepper2 at the end, though wind was gone.

Nice one, lamrith. It looks like the youngun is rightly hooked on the best sport! Good for you. I tried to teach my son to fly, (he was 28 at the
time) he got frustrated too easily and gave up. He'd still rather play games on his x-box.  for Joe Sat!

Thanks guys. That was my 1st time using the gopro also. trying to get it figured out well before skiing in 3 weeks :-p Might need to tweak teh
angles just a hair.
Yeah he picked it up right off. Only other time he flew he flew a HQ Symphony beac 1.7. He put that into the ground quite a bit, but it was a hair
windier that day and the Symphony is a wicked fast little bugger. This Buster was much more smooth and stable.

Looks like you have to have a Vimeo plus account to do mobile. I will get the vedeo hosted up on my personal server shortly, that should be viewable
by anyone regardless of device?

Yes, go to your video click settings. Then in the left column there should be a button I think that will do the trick.

There were no places showing "allow mobile".
I don't have a plus account, Not going to pay to host videos when I have my own webserver to host on... I can't upload from work, so I will get it on
my server tonight and post the link here..
Big - No way he is gettin his mitts on my baby V2. He was jabbering away about my "big" 8m Pepper2 Probably lose it if I had rolled out the V2, but
there was not enough wind for that...:wee:

He ski's better than I used to! We have had him on ski's since he was 5 or so.
Kiteski in time Dad needs to learn and be the pro 1st!! least for a little bit until he blows by me!! ATB eventually.. He has wanted to snowboard,
but we keep convincing him not to, his older brother and I did for a while, tough when everyone else is 2 planking. ATB lends itself more to
boarding, so who knows if/when that will happen..
