About a year and a half ago I bought a real nice custom Team Next Up and maybe flew it less than 5 times. It's a beautiful kite with taped seems and Icone white spreaders that was custom ordered to look like a Debray Replica. It's not as tricky as some of my other kites but it sure is pretty to look at! I was thinking about letting it go back to the original owner for $300 ($50 less than what I paid for it) to put money towards a sewing machine.

I'm having trouble getting the okay to get a sewing machine right now (mabey later) so would you keep it or sell it? (I'm wondering if there would ever be a market for this kite considering how much it is.)

Are you collecting or flying?

[Bob D]

I'm mainly flying the Nirvanas and the occasional Widow Maker, Deep Space, and Fearless. The others are what others might be the B bag. The Team Next Up might qualify as being in the B bag.

BOB if you ask me sell it. I used to collect kites as you know but then i realized no no point on keeping them if you could use something else.

I think you might be right, Sammy. Am I a collector or a flier? I want to think that if I'm a flier, than being a collector servers no good purpose.  I've got some great kites and I don't have enough time to to fly the ones I REALLY want to fly!

And there's the quads! Sammy, we have to meet up some time at LSP!
