You will quickly realise that its not about who has the biggest kite, its all relative.

Ive seen my 5m struggle to get off the ground and on another occasion i have been lauched over 22yrds on a 2.5m. Its all down to the wind, if youre little and light, you dont need a big *** kite.

With 16mph tomorrow i can see us all being on 3.5s all day

Well after the false start at Grays, it was off to Barleylands, what a great place........

Dazza always wanted a dog, really.


Fozzy's only flight, before being called in to work.


Buggy time......






















No "You've Been Framed" moments this time.

Next time I'll wear old clothes and join in the fun.
