"Cool Fool Festival" (January 1st)...I'll be there (actually here) for the festivities. Let's hope the weather is a little more kite-worthy than last year! I nearly frozen my gazangles off!

Hope to learn a few "controls" from you IKE veterans as I'm planning on going to Huntington in February and could use some (alot) of tips so I might join the Mega-Fly! A dream of mine! But, If not prepared by then I'll happily watch with glee!

First of all Welcome Aboard Jynx.

Yes Cool Fools is a nice way to fly in the new year. I had not made it out  last year but had a year or two before that. Had a great time. You should look up Team Trejo, for he lives out your way.

Also watch the forum for club flys that may be happening in the near future, you dont  have to wait till news years day to fly with us IKE folk. Looking forwards to flying with you out at Kite Party too.

Jynx,

Welcome to the forum and to IKE.  Sounds like you're already hooked on Revs.

As a fellow newbie, let me encourage you to make it to any of the club/group flys that you can.  Flying with others is a fantastic way to learn what you don't know.  I've been lucky enough to fly twice in a group and both times I came away with several things to practice.  No matter how mach I think I've learned, the IKE guys always seem to find a weak spot in my knowledge base ... you know; that move where your brain and your hands fail to communicate properly and the kite does something stupid.

Cheers,
Tom

  Thanks to all of you for the warm welcome! Hope to meet up with any of you/s who can make it out to the Huntington Party.

I'm more ready (than able) to learn! I look forward to receiving tips and learning from those willing to coach.

Hopefully, when (if) the weather improves... I'd really enjoy getting together for a fly!

Until then... Hope to see the "brave" on New Years Day!

Jynx
