Hey Jason,

I'm new to it too...been flying my HQ TSR 3.6 for a couple of months. I'm in Chesapeake and there's a guy in Franklin and there's another on the peninsula. Maybe one of these days we can all get together and do some flying.

Hey, wanted to say Hi. I live out in Red mill. Kinda inbetween the ocean front and sandbridge. I have a ozone 6 meter land kite. I wouldn't mind a little tutoring so I can improve as I know absolutely nothing about this sport but am starting to be able to fly the kite.

I have seen a lot of guys from a distance at the beach and seems to be a good bit of people go to mount trashmore. So far I have mostly gone to the higher numbered streets at the ocean front in hopes of not being seen while I figure things out.
