TeX00 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Hello all, my name is James. I'm in the military stationed at McGuire AFB in New Jersey. My grandfather in law about 6 years ago introduced me to dual line kites in which I've flown a few times a year since then and really enjoy. He passed away about 4 years ago and I had no idea how deep his love for flying kites was. His wife recently passed all of his kites to me since I was the only that really showed much interest. This included 6 revs and a couple dual line kites all different models. I really want/need help with pretty much everything about these quad line kites, seeing as I could barely get one of them off the ground the first time I tried. I really want to continue and pass on his passion for flying to my kids and family. Thank you all! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portlandflyer Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 There are a whole bunch of folks in that neck of the woods, that are sure to chime in! Liberty State Park is one place they regularly go to. I'm sure some of them will jump in to help! Welcome!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeX00 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 What time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REVflyer Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 early to late is the time for Rev kite flying,..... how deep do you want to go?, that's entirely up to you. Certainly someone's there by 10:00am until at least 3:00, speaking from personal experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tmadz Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Welcome James. There is another website with videos that will teach you the basics all the way from setup, flying, to putting away. Nothing beats getting time on the lines, but I will say getting time flying with more experienced fliers pays off in spades. Good luck. If you need any help identifying kites and or asking for help with parts, lines, etc. feel free to ask on this forum. Kite fliers are a friendly and helpful bunch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
