Stone in Shoe Bob Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Wow! Still trying to get my head round that move in the first video, what do you call it, I don’t think that is in The Team Manual. I think it’s a variation on a Benefit, starts from a follow then the leader turns 270 and passes behind #2, then 2 behind 3 and 3 behind 4. Very impressive that one has to go in the book. And yes, before anyone says, I know I’ve got a long way to go before I’m up to that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnmitchell Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Part 2... Stairway to Heaven. That is the BEST Quad line team flying I have ever seen. I am very impressed! Congratulations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiteLife Posted July 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 I think that's the Fountain and no, its not in the manual YETLoads of fun to fly too! Yep, that's the fountain... Immediately followed by the "super star" where we do that 1-2-3-4 flanking maneuver, shifting the line from horizontal to vertical, and so on. Thanks for the kudos John, that means a lot coming from you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Foster Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 John You and the rest of iQuad have really raised the bar. The bit where you are doing moves in the sand is just delightful. What fun. Great flying!! Lynn and Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerochic Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 Hey John, if i can get my hands on a good set of 120's I'll give it a whirl next year Picture Pretty Kites has a nice array of line sets (including 120s): http://www.pictureprettykites.com/newppk/p...e/Sport/Winders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiteLife Posted July 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 Fraser, it's fairly normal for those four pilots, actually a little shakier than usual... It was de Rooy, Rudolph, Hathaway and myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic. I'm writing this half an hour from returning from an hour or two's flying. I'm JUST starting to get some control creeping in, but all that does is emphasise the yawning gulf that lies between me and competence! It isn't a case of getting this in a few weekends, that's for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fraserx Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 Ugh! I so hear this, Fraser. Makes you appreciate what other accomplished Rev fliers do all the more. Na - just makes me mad! LOL I have a theory that they're androids and thus it's all done with computers. Kinda 'fly-by-wire' thing goin' on. Y'know how the latest fighter jets can't actually be flown by humans - they can only be flown because a computer's constantly making minute adjustments? Well, same thing here. If ya need proof, there's that Will Smith movie - I-Robot... I-Quad... I rest my case.... Fraser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
