Glad everyone had a good time on the Monkey's Thursday although the conditions were a bit nutty. I have never seen Gabe go higher or longer on a jump. He hit a new level that day. Somehow I held down the 12M for a few hours but I can't say I was having all that much fun. Just too much kite for little 150lb me. Doable...yes, fun...not really. Wish we had a 9M. Not knocking Flexi cause we carry them now, but in retrospect I should have asked Billy to give the Monkey a go...just to see where he could take it....maybe next time.

Not real sure what the weekend is going to bring, but plan to bring the kites back for another round of demo's on Sunday. Hopefully it will blow like they say and 12M will be the norm instead of the exception.

Also too bad Demitri couldn't have made it. In those kinds of conditions he would have really put on a show. Truly a day not many of us are that used to.

I will keep you posted!

Well, with the bleak day today, I don't have high expectations for tomorrow. I would really like to demo these kites on a day that is more 12M material. Sunday isn't showing much signs of this. The jumping factor of these kites is amazing, and I feel it would be better to wait for a windier weekend.

I concur with Scott, this has been a very stange winter indeed.
