Yippiee Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Well Ben, I hope I'm not to late for this - new to Rev's. (sure would love to have a shirt to go with my new kites! So here goes: 1st pic - my new 20th anniversary B-Series 1.5 that I bought at 2008 (WSIKF) Washington State International Kite Festival (1st kite festival I have ever attended) 2nd pic - Me trying that reverse horizontal slide sideways thingy 3rd pic - Lady on the beach asked me to take a picture of her and her wienner dog "Buddy" 4th pic - I offered to let this lady try out my new kite. (the kite was 2 days old) She had have the time of her life - as she repeatly crashed my brand new kite into the ground at full speed!!! She was having such a good time, all I could do was (hold her wienner dog - Buddy) and just keep laughing right along with her and snap off more pictures. I can honestly say, I've never seen someone having such a good time flying//(crashing) a kite. She just kept doing it over and over and over - lol. And as her skill increased (meaning the kite got higher and faster) the crashes were even more dramatic futher increasing her laughter. Tears of joy were streaming down our faces. I am truley amazed she didn't completely trash the poor kite. It was a real testament as to how well these kites are made. I should name that kite "Timex" - lol. 5th pic - The Drachen Foundation Logo - I wanted to photoshop a pic explaining that the foundation is a non-profit corporation devoted to the increase and diffusion of knowledge about kites worldwide - but it just didn't work - I'm photoshop ignorant - sorry.

Me flying my kite, this is me inside the Worlds then largest kite at Bristol a few years back, its a scan from the Guinnes Book of Records 3. Me showing someone how to fly, probably the first International Rev Clinic in 1993 @ World Cup in Berkeley with Chris Matheson Hope these are OK, unfortunately my Camera broke at Bristol so didn't get any there - only happens to the nicest people Anyway hope these are OK.
