"Where we all understand the attraction of traction"

If that isn't on a PKF t-shirt yet, it should be.

That was my first 4 line kite. Then I wanted a second one. Then I was sure that the third kite would be enough. Now I have 9 and my next 3 already picked out. Just pace yourself and this sport will give you much happiness. Congrats on the kite on the way. We share your excitement and most of all we understand. :spin:

I think it is safe to say that a lot of people start under a beamer. I did and many that are in my area did. I still have mine, and pull it out here and there. Excellent choice! Have fun, be safe!

Just made my first quad purchase. Beamer 111 2m

Been watching the Youtube footage and hope I made the right choice for my size. 150lbs. Maybe time to breakout my old climbing harness.
