After a lot of hard work by the writers and photographers, the first issue of Land Kiting magazine is ready for download. Here is the link:

www.thekiteline.com/landkitingmag/issues/landkiting1110.pdf

You are welcome to download the file for your own use. You are welcome to print it and enjoy it whereever you happen to be. You can link to the file from your website. Send the link to your friends.

What you can not do is distribute the file itself via email or on your own site. I need to monitor how many times the file is downloaded and I can not do that if it is on someone else's website.

I hope you enjoy it. If you have any comments, feel free to email me at mag@thekiteline.com. If you would like to write an article or provide pictures, drop me a line.

Thanks for taking the time to look at it.

Enjoy.

Mike

cool....:roll:

Nice job putting that together, Mike. Excellent write up on Wildwood, Kristen. Continued success with your project.

Turned out nicely, Mike. Glad I could help out.
Look forward to doing another article should the content allow!

Pretty work Mike! I hope this gets bigger , just like the buggy bash. :wee:

Awesome and the best of luck to you. It's about time we had media geared towards the U.S. power kite market.

That was great, very enjoyable read. Good job on the bash coverage Kristen

love it great 1st issue :wee:

Awesome read!!!! Surprised at how quick you managed bring it to life, was thinking that it wouldn't be till after new year. Great job guys!!! Hope to see another in the future.

Cheers

can i get a giant size advertising page too.

Good read WELL DONE

Great reading material. I need to print it for the bathroom... :cool2:

Cheesy we just buy this stuff in the paper isle at the store. Comes in a small roll and nice a soft too.

Just a suggestion, you should try to get people's names to go with the photos.

hey Ragden, you're a soopastar... killa photo of you rippin it up !!! :bigok:

Well done.

Maven - You are absolutly right. I do need names to go with the photos. I am working on a procedure for submitting photos that will give credit to both the photographer and the subject.

Cheezy - Come on man. If you are going to print it out for the bathroom be sure to print it out in black and white. You don't want something that will leave colored ink stains. I know...:moon:

Shags - The real credit goes to those who wrote the articles. They busted those babies out and got it done fast. Good job to them.

RipSession - If you want ad space, there are two ways to get it. Either submit something that we can put in the magazine or donate swag for the writers. The choice is yours.

Of course, this wouldn't be a post from me without a subtle or not so subtle request for submissions. I would like to have the next issue out by the end of the first week in December. If you have an idea for an article please drop me a line at mike@thekiteline.com or U2U me here.

I am looking for someone who has quite a few different photos willing to throw them in for a photo spread. I'm also looking for someone to write a, "My Entry into Land Kiting" type story. If someone is willing to do it, I would appreciate it.

I'm working on a reward for those who have submitted articles. I know that success is its own reward, but let's be honest. We all like free stuff.

-Mike

nice! now if only you can get your hands on some free kites for 'reviews'.... :D

Great job on this project. Kristen you did a fantastic write up on the Bash! Looking forward to the next issue!

if you want these to continue i suggest that you get contributors listed ... many the top team riders from different brands head to different events.

you can borrow anything i post on my blog but do ask first and i can provide you with pics in high res. www.ricardo-kc88.com

if you need the low down on new items / gear / kites coming ... ill submit what i can inform people about.

Thanks for the effort!! I am excited to read it. You are welcome to use my write up about the flexboard but I won't feel bad if you aren't interested.

Awesome! I'm so glad this got of the ground (and so quickly, too!) Can't wait to see what future issues hold!

It was a great read, and chock full of goodies, especially for a first issue. If I can help in any way, I'd love to be part!

Very nice work, to everyone that was a part of this. I too was impressed that you got this off the ground and so quick!

When I get some time to fly, maybe I'll have something to write about. Right now I'm moving. They will go in a box at the very last moment.:duh:

HEY NICE PHOTOS!!!
