Sunset Beach 23-25


will be down to the beach the weekend of Thanksgiving. My wonderful wife wants to eat sandy turkey and watch the seashore. So with all my strength I have mustered up the simple word, OK.:smilegrin:
Got a new buggy to try, some other stuff to get sandy, and 3 days to do it.
Working on a sun and wind dance, but the jumps and pirouettes are a bit much for these old bones.:o May have to settle for a simple hop and a sitspin.:sniff:

that sounds good Jeff.
I thought those were some good pirouettes you were doing last week, maybe we just needed to do more.

Pretty big wind this weekend has really got my attention now.
I'm watching it closely.


see ya on the beach,

New buggy? Now what? Hopefully I'll see it before I go to JIBE. Yes, I am heading to Georgia in May. Off topic I know, back to business as usual.

24M on 85m lines...


Thanks Jeff for letting me clean you out on line-sets!! LOL...
We attempted to send Phanny to the moon to grab some good air "up there"...that was awesome...

Actually, it flies amazingly well on LONG lines....
Just did the math and that's like ...nearly 280 ft of line out...fishing for good air "up there"...

With that huge of a window to work with, 3-4 mph and I was rolling!!

My biggest worry was getting the lines out and launched before cars tried to drive over my lines...

Part II tomorrow if it all works out...ROCK ON!!

Jeff...That new buggy is sweet looking (I'm not even a buggier, and I had to oogle it a little)....should be a blast

:wee:
