Your other hobbies


I was just wondering what everyones hobbies are besides kiting.
Mine are "skateboarding for life", drum playing, wake boarding, slalom skiing, gun sooting(my 20 guage and my dads 12 guage shot guns and my dads 40 cal pistol), disc golf, and camping.:D

I was lucky enough to scarf one of those pepper grinders. Awesome, and it does a great job with those peppercorns as well.

My hobbies are water skiing, wakeboarding, barefooting, mtn biking, roller blading (not with a kite yet), camping, and I like having the best lawn on the street.

Mood: freestyle tactician

[*] posted on 20-3-2008 at 06:39 PM


well right now it been sewing ripstop but I need a better machine ....

I hit the gun range once a week and like everything else I love tweaking out long guns like ARs and tactical bolt actions... both my wife and son both shoot long guns as well...some of the guys at the gun club don't like to sit next to her for fear of making them look bad:lol: SHE's that good

also I fly sport kites, quads, fighters SLKs and even fly indoors... tour along the west coast to many kiting events doing demos in all aspects of kiting and once again my wife and son both fly quads

Oh yeah, I shoot skeet as well. Won the family championship for the second year running last Thanksgiving. Wexler came in second in the money round. And he was using my gun instead of his!

I was sewing ripstop recently to make some ultralight camping gear. But generally I do martial arts and circus arts. Like Flying Trapeze, and all sorts of other aerial and ground acts.

Outside kiting, my life revolves around my horses which my dad and I keep we have about 6 at the minute and they take a lot of looking after especially as mine is a stallion which needs to be kept seperate from the rest. Other than that, I do windsurfing, archery, scouts, air cadets (which means flying, gliding and 100 mile marches) and every so often doing something really random with a few friends (our last one was going to see a pantomime dressed as if it was the last night of the opera/victorian). Thats about it.

I've worked with lots of exotic animals but the first time I was nipped in the ribbs and then it kicked right threw the 2x8 plank like it was balsa wood,They got my "Respect" !
