After meeting part of

in Shawano, Wis. last weekend, I decided to check out the IKE forum. I'm a beginning dual-line flyer (been flying somewhat seriously for about three years), member of the
Hoosier Kiteflier's Society, member of AKA and frequent spectator at kite festivals and competitions. Recently, I began serving as announcer at kite festivals in Shipshewana, Ind. and Shawano, Wis. (as of today, I've announced at three events).
Currently, I fly a Flying Wings Alpha+ (my first "big" kite) and just acquired a Skyburner Ocius UL. I'm interested in quads and did Ben's demo at GLKF this spring but have decided to become more skilled on duals before I seriously consider adding a quad to the kite bag.
I decided I needed a signature line, so I wrote this.
