It's been 3 years since my first trip to Florence, OR where i picked up my first kite.
We went back this last week, but this time i had my new armorment of kites with me ready for any type of wind i would meet. A few days flying vented, a few days of UL's and a few days of sweet directional steady standard wind.
I had the wife shoot lots of video and i was surprised when reviewing it, that I actually fly much better than i thought i could. :>)
I always remembered someone posting on the old forum about staking out his fade and going to to get a cold drink. Heck, I can't even get a fade to hold on my lines for more than 2-3 seconds here at home. Well flying in this great wind that i dont get to experience very often i'm locking in these fades for 1-2 minutes. I start yelling at my wife to grab the camera but she cant hear me.

Soo, all i could do was stake that puppy out and get the camera myself if i ever wanted to have a picture to remember..
