Choccy Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Just got home after the first day of the iQuad clinic absolutely exhausted and wind swept (mad hair to prove it) *giggle* great day (needed less wind). Good to see so many ppl turn up and join in At least a few more people are understanding my battle with the strong gusts.... even the pros were laughing at me skudding across the field at times same again tomorrow but warmer please just going through the piccies now. Good to meet you all.... PS yesterdays mega fly: 47 woooo-hooooo can't believe it was real! Such an honour to be a part of that! Thank you to Felix and Stephen (and Ben look after the trophy for us all) Oh and I really must not let my eye stray from my kite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest groz Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Wow, what a weekend. Like everyone else, exhausted, but so, so happy! Thanks Felix and Stephen for bringing us into the MegaTeam Thanks Hezz for posting the pics - great stuff! Working through the video footage now, hope to have something rough cut later tonight... Will work on the DVD over the coming days/weeks, and I know I owe a few of you them already The shots I have seen so far look good, and thanks to all the flyers for letting me get in amoungt you; it made a real difference. Great meeting so many new and old friends, and flying with so many of you too. One more day of clinic tomorrow, and then Bristol next week - wahooo!!!!!

What a Great weekend though, I haven't done a years practice but I reckon I have acquired a years experience in the last 3 days. Hey Dude, if you are there at Bristol, you can always find me sitting in the front row Line up same as Portsmouth and I'll do the calls. (BTW did you notice I stopped half way throu? - You're quick learner.) Team flying is a real steep learning curve, any team flyer will tell you, you learn REAL quick. PS have some bad news, for those that got home today..... I got back yesterday BUT I'm still buzzing !!!! PPS Thanks Stewart - You did a great job. BTW I must get smaller Sunglasses, or are they retro enough to look 20 years old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Hoath Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I've just got back from the festival and for once I'm nearly speachless! The whole event was fantastic and I would like to say a big thankyou to everyone who participated this weekend, from the groundcrew to the press core all the way down to the fliers. It was a real team event and it would not have been any where near as successful without everysingle one of you. I would like to extend a personal thank you to all of you for making my life so much easier. The formal teams blended seamlessly without any ego's (well except mine) and the individual fliers gave their all, this was the biggest thing any of us has done before. I was impressed and proud of the way everyone pulled together and acted as one team. So whilst one or two of us may have received a little more direct thanks on the field, I truly believe those thanks were warmly extended to everyone. Now i'm going for a lie down and a large glass of whiskey (to ease my voice you understand!) WOW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted August 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Perfect Felix, will use your experience from Portsmouth, traveled on Friday morning to Bristol, see you. And another thing... We have new sails for the Decorators with a graphic design by JMH. Some of you will have seen these briefly at Porstmouth. The design is for ten kites. We have sails for 1.5 and 1. We should consider getting 'a team' organised to fly them all together, 1.5 and 1, at Bristol as JMH is going to be there!!! Two of the Rev 1 sails will be auctioned for the benefit of the event at Bristol. Two of the Rev 1.5 sails are going to Revolution Kites/Ben! (Edited, These will be Yellow flash ones probably, my colour! Felix) Felix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
