Another ARC convert
I really hope the wife doesn't find out anytime soon.
Thanks Rip in advance for any grief this brings me :tumble:
Can't wait for the ribs to heal up, and get my 13m Scorpion, and for that matter my still untested, unflown 11m NEO.
Really want to do a side by side of the two kites.
More to come, but have to wait till June for first flights. :sniff:

we got around your wife not knowing just yet. you can always say it was a demo from RSKB. ill lie for anyone of you. 
i think you're super excitied to the point you forgot what kite you bought.  your
ribs might not like you at all when your 16 metres of sail arrives.

Hey what can I say, percocet is a great thing for not only the body, but also the mind! (it clouds it :lol 
I say bring it rip! Ribs heal. The excitement of a 16m sail outweighs the brief OH S**t!
Granted the biggest sail I've flown was Catch the Winds 330 sq ft stunt chute. All you could do was a tuuuuuurrrrrnnnnn
to the left and a tuuuuuurrrrnnnnn to the right. Took the entire window to complete one revolution. Pulled like a freight train, and we only took it
out when winds were 1-4mph. Truely a crazy kite.

You'll never look at a zipper the same way again. Never fly with it down!

Arc's are so cool... Buggy, Water, Atb... then just tie 'em to a truck, tree limb on the ground, etc... and let them auto zenith while relaxing.
