KiteLife Posted June 16, 2007 Report Share Posted June 16, 2007 Really wish I was going, Kyle (the organizer) is a good guy. I encourage anyone who can, to turn up at this one and support the festival! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortflyer Posted July 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 Well it is Official the Newport Kite Festival (July 14 - 15th) has been listed as such. Hope to see anyone that can make it, not sure what will be sanctioned for free flying areas yet but I'll be looking for anyone I don't know already flying a Rev. If anyone here is planning on going PM me and maybe we can get together and terrorize and flat out have a great time quad style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a good guy, I work with him a lot. Will do, now if I can only get him to fly that B-series he has instead of hanging it on his wall like a shrine (so I can try it ) we'll be all set. Thanks for editing the title John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortflyer Posted July 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 Well another great year has passed in Newport Rhode Island ( sorry wasn't clear on that ) Lots of fabric in the sky, turned out allot better than expected with a new host this year. Congrats to Jamestown Kites for doing an excellent job. Ended today with only a 10 kite Rev mega fly led by Scott Weider (a few fliers didn't have the confidence to participate too bad) All in All was a great time, would have been nice to have more Rev Mega Fly's Great Demo's by Scott Weider, Shawn Tinkham (maniac ^5), Art & Beth, Sue & Steve and all the others that made these 2 days great. Special Thanks to Doug Coates for letting me try both the Reg and Vented B-Series, and to all those who showed up from across New England and beyond.
