? One handed flying?

I don't think my Dentist would approve of me holding a Rev handle in my teeth, could foresee problem's if there was a sudden gust of wind. As for fulcrum point's on the handle's I find that changes depending on the wind condition's, I use what works for me on the day & depending how the kite is set up and what I'm trying to do, and a lot of people in the past have said I'm not NORMAL what ever that is, but all is ok in Wobbly's world

Wobbly makes this look so relaxed and easy :lol:

Cool.

so I tried to do this, it's not as easy as it looks, but then the wind was a bit light when I tried.

However I have witnessed a no hands controlled 'flying' kite, where both handles are on the ground, not even staked or held! :w00t:

Thankyou Choccy, I have found the wind strength is not too much of an issue as long as the Rev is set up properly for the condition's but a nice smooth wind helps a lot, if the wind is a bit "bumpy" I use two groundstakes to peg the handle on the ground, when using one groundstake the length of the grass is a factor as it add's a resistance to the handle movement, have not been called cool for a while, fair made my day B)
