Nice little gathering.

Still LMFAO at the image of Tiny Kite Buggying, without the buggy. Any friction burns?

Oh and Spally, just found the perfect father and son package for you and Bobby......

Mrs ESC Cracked when i walked in

Boy i ache again now , Going to feel a little worse in the morning

Was well pleased today though @ how i got on flying the blade in a gusty wind up to 13mph , Think that's about my limit with it though , It just tires me out so quick

Bring on the Buggy

2.4m Sting nice

How did he get on with it compared to the 2.5 Rage last week , The Sting is a little more tame , Thought he may of been better going down the Rage route tbh , He's a strong boy & proved he could handle it in light winds , But perhaps the Sting is more suited to him in stronger winds

Now what's Dad going to get then

Nice one Budgie,
Just make sure Tom is 100% aware of what and who is around him when he's flying. You get no end of muppets walking underneath you, when the have the whole 400 acres of the rest of the park to walk!!! (and one of these was a seemingly proficient flyer, setting up right in the middle of us!!)

couple of low-level swoops, tends to see them off, or get Fozzie to do his horizontal speed flying nearby!!!

12 mph was close to the limit on the 3m Beemer too (for me, anyway) but using a little brake now and again clamed things down.
(Tiny, the brakes are the 2 extra lines you seem to be wondering about!!!)

Fozzie, anytime you want to swap about with the kites is fine with me matey.

How much garden have they got at Ye Olde Plough????

I think you need to have proof of insurance to fly there, not 100% sure though.

I however will not be attending, have a good one

Yep, thought so....

DAY TICKETS - Visitors will be issued with a day-ticket once proof of a valid 3rd party insurance policy has been provided. Keep the ticket available on the kite field, this is your permit to fly.
