Welcome to the GWTW Forum.
Guests (non-registered users) can view the forum but are unable to post.  If you don't have anything to say then why would you bother to register?
One of the most popular sections of the GWTW Forum has long been the Swap Meet.  A great place to sell old, seldom flown kites or to get great deals on used (gently flown) kites.  Only registered users can see the Swap Meet section, let alone wheel and deal.  1000's (literally) of kites have changed hands thanks to the Swap Meet.
There are several more benefits to being a registered user, but you'll have to join our little community to find out all the "secrets".

The last video I uploaded to YouToob was close to a gig. They don't care...

RobB is right. You just upload it and they will compress and adapt it.
Your video is really nice and deserves that we watch it in HD!  Smiley

The Monster is a 2.4m freestyle kite.  Very similar to l'quartz by the same designer, but with some differences in sail shape.


I hope it flies better than the Le Quartz.
I'm not at all happy about the one I built.
I can defend myself flying my Soul and my Talon UL, but every time I take out the Le Quartz it is a constant battle and I end up getting upset and putting it away.
And I'm so disappointed since I really like the design and the color pattern I chose, so it is really frustrating.

I really hope the Monster is a nicer flyer because I like its design and probably will build one some day...

Wow, I love the pattern and the fact that its an almost full size Quartz.  I wish I could somehow get access to the plans.  Or will you be permitted to post the plans once you release your MEGA TUTORIAL!  Wink

I was wondering where I could locate the fiberglass wrapped rods to make rollbars for my prototyping/test Quartz.  I am not sure what size either.  Looks to be a possible 3mm diameter but not sure.  Haven't seem to find any sites that sell the rods or have much info.  If anyone can help with specifications, parts list or vendors that would help greatly.  I will continue searching.



I was bored today and was actually tired of snags from yoyo based tricks and decided to mod/practice on the Quartz again before applying to actual builds and did a snagless setup on it today.  I saw this on a Benson DS/Gemini.  It was a crude/fast install but worked well enough today.  Please excuse the Mylar alternative Dacron reinforcement that was sewn on the front of the kite rather than the rear.  Figured if the black was going to bleed through the sail might as well just place it up front.
