:D So I finally got my wish, I got wind. Steady winds 12 to 14 Gusts 16 to 18. 18 + inches of beautiful untouched fresh powder. Tom, Todd and myself hit it hard. Tom had the best session he's probably ever had on the Mesa. Todd did ok but was way underpowered on his 10. I had a few small snafus like...

Headed out on machines today to check out some back areas of the Grand Mesa. Todd, Steve, Tom and myself, two snowmobiles, and the wind. Matt did say blowing like stink?? Well we called it by 3ish winds nuking! Tom got some good slashes at the beginning. Winds boarding on 20 mph. I blew up my 11m. T...

Light wind day one, put in the Turbos with no blowers on the 21 Soul. 10 to 12 mph winds, the kite filled beautifully. No effort on my part other than putting in and taking out the Turbos.( See above...

I'm starting to get very frustrated with snowboarding with my kite. I, like many people could loose some weight. I've always been heavy, very big boned. In my defense i played football and ran track in high school and graduated at 212 pounds. Yesterdays scale 216 4 pounds difference. Also being hone...

Turbo chargers check. Super light wind 6 to 7 mph put in the turbos added two battery operated blowers for air beds. By the time I had the lines out and walked, the kite was 40 to 50% inflated. Time from hitting the snow to kite flying 20 minutes much better than day 1 1.5 hrs. The amazing thing is ...

Count me in!

5 gallon plant bucket sliced in 4" wide strips, then cut the strip a little bigger than the circumference needed. Rounded and sanded the strips. Best of all takes up little room and fits in the bag.
