Well, the rain stopped long enough to get a little seat time in the buggy. I used Rasta's Fury, as the wind was only 5-7. I took a little video, but I really need a better video camera. Here's the link, anyway. http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual...

Very nice Bob. What that at the farm? It didn't look like it. That NPW is very simular to one of my C-Quads. In colors and shape anyway.

No, that was out back at the local school. There's a few 'shadow spots' where the kite will fall out of the air if not worked properly. Very close to home though, 5 min. NPW's are great, single skin, so fly in light wind, no frame so can't break! They take a little getting used to, but all my kites did!

It really wasn't enough quality seat time(Sunday), so I took yesterday off, and went to Southwick beach. Wind was great, 10-15 from the W. I buggied for almost 4 hours!AOXO achieved. I used the twisty tripod I've got for the digi-cam, and attached the camera to the gooseneck, and took video of a run from the last camping site S towards the cut, about 1.25miles, and back. Video is 9:00 min. long, and kind of jumpy, the beach isn't so smooth, and there's little shock absorbtion(none). It's still processing, and I'm hoping it plays back better than the last one...:flaming:If not I won't bother to link to it. The kite, my 2.4M NPW, only makes it into the footage at the very end, when I set it down to stop, and really there's only the waves, shorebirds, bird poo(green slime) and zebra mussels (white, pebble-like things that make a clatter when I run over them), but when I watch, it's like being there again!

Sounds like a good day off from work. But in my case any day off from work is good!! Crap I'm always working.

ummm.... what is this?

This would be a forum thread. It is how the users of a forum share information with each other :duh:.

Yeah,it was a great day off from work. The video I took is on myspace like the other one, you can use the same link as above, then look for other videos by bobalooie57, then look for 'kite buggy beach run'. When I upload these vids to my computer, they play smoothly from beginning to end, but lately when I upload to myspace, they play about 4 sec. then stop for a while, then play 4sec. more etc. It's very annoying. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong, or is there a fix for this?

Nice vid Bob. Hope to see you at WW:wee:

O now I understand, that was such a sweet little video.

lame... i cant get the myspace vids to load...
my pc fails

We have some wind right now but the hike in the park wore out the little one. So she is sleeping! Just my luck!!

After much trial and error, I finally got a 'movie' made and uplaoded it to youtube. It's a shorter version of my run monday, with a favorite song!

yeah, I figured I wouldn't get it right. no time to try and fix the wind is blowin' and I have the day off, going back to the beach!

i can decipher embed code tho!! very chill vid!

dave matthews FTW!

Well, I found movie maker easy enough to figure out, so I converted my light wind session with the 7M NPW, Rasta's Fury, to WMV and added a tune. If I could only get the embed to work. I hope this is a link to it. <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/CXcbxZrN8QE&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xcfcfcf&hl=en_US&feature=player_detailpage&fs=1"></param ><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/CXcbxZrN8QE&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xcfcfcf&hl=en_US&feature=player_detailpage&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

DOH!

Sorry, I'm a tech idiot.

all you do is type like this
[youtube] movie-id [/youtube]

then just put the 7 digit (or whatever it is) movie id in the tag!

cool vids btw, look forward to more!!

Thanks Drew!

This one's old, from last Oct., but updated.

hey Bob that track rocks...!!! RASTA'S FURY for sure, great vid, cool looking NPW

It says it is not avalible:sniff:

I dunno roc, it should be there, I'll try again.

It's something on youtube. I get the same thing.

But, but,but, I got that message from youtube about copyrighted content(music) and when I click there, the video plays?

Well, there's a link to it, anyway. There, embed works now.

Shows up for me now.

Resurrected this post 'cause it fit here. I had the Tachyo XC Micro out on Sunday at Duflo's airport. Wind was mostly NW, but light. I flew Rasta's Fury, and got a little ridin' in.

NICE!!!
