Quad Team Practice

[Frodos Majik]

I would love to, but I have one day left for vaca. Plus for the next month and a half, I will not be able to take any days off do to elections around the corner in Indiana. Got to love all those last minute charlies want their crap NOW.

I know it is already thursday evening, but I was wondering if anybody would like to try again this weekend for some team practise?

Both saturday and sunday look very good for winds, sunday (14), saturday (11).

Who, Where, When any thoughts?

[Mike]

I can meet up on Sunday.
If we can get 4 people to meet on Sunday from 10am - 4pm in Bourbonnais, I'm in.
We've been here before, it's marked Bourbonnais Soccer Field on Jeff's Map

45 miles from Calumet City
46 miles from Oak Lawn
55 miles from Aurora
55 miles from Montgomery
83 miles from Champaign

Actually, make that 2087 mi. I'm in San Diego. I'll be back Monday

Thinking of stopping by the Rev factory tomorrow.

Anybody need some Race rods?

[Frodos Majik]

I'm in that makes two...

Yes Issac,
I could use a center LE with ferrules. Would hook up with you next weekend out at Montrose.

By the way... being out in San Diego, with out the rest of us. For SHAME.

Sunday I have to play at Church and then play at a Fall Festival so my day is shot...

It's the penance I must pay to have played so much this summer....lol... gonna break out my Rev at the festival though... hopefully there is a windy spot there..

[TeamTrejo]

I could use a center LE with ferrules.

What size? 2 or 3 wrap?, Race?

I dont' even know if you can just go there and buy stuff but I'll try.

[Nick]

[Frodos Majik]

Nick I hope this was a type-o and you meant to say sunday?

[Mike]

I wont be home until late tonight and I'll check the forum then.
If Ken and Nick want to meet at Bourbonnais on Sunday, I'll be there. We'll make a 3-kite team.
I'll post tonight.

[Frodos Majik]

OK, team practice with a 3 man team is on!
Sunday, 29th from 10am - 4pm in Bourbonnais.
We've been here before, it's marked Bourbonnais Soccer Field on Jeff's Map.

[Frodos Majik]

See you all in the morning.

[TeamTrejo]

If I were a Bears fan I guess I'd rather be out flying kites today too.

[Jeff]

Even if I were a Packer fan, I'd rather be out flying.

I AM a Cub fan, and even if their playoff game is during the day Saturday, I'll be flying.

[Mike]

Great practice today. We could see improvements in everyone's flying by the end of the day.
Tom came by and flew with us too.
We did a 5-kite mega fly for about 1 1/2 hours with Tom, Nick, Ken, me, and Mike S. and Zach (Bean) taking turns. All did great and by the end we were doing some really nice circles on our follows.
We had planned to stop at 4:00 but didn't leave until 5:30. Too much fun!

[backdraft]

Hello,
Great Practice. Thanks to everyone: Mike, Ken, Tom, and Marla it was a very nice day! Thanks Mike for encouraging me to go out and fly in the "Mega" Fly.

PS: Tom you can't deny that you were flying a quad and enjoying it. Probably gonna be some dual line kites for sale out of your bag soon.
