I am waiting on a new kite that is supposed to arrive today. I sure hope it shows or I am going to be bored to death at the beach tomorrow. I haven't flown in about 12 or so years so it should be pretty ugly. Lot's of ground hits are probably in my future. I have been watching both videos for a few days now trying to refresh my memory. I am only what I consider a strong beginner at most so it is going to be awhile before I feel competent. Thanks for posting the videos. They are priceless to me! Peace
Just got my quantum 2.0 yesterday, man this thing is AWESOME. Amazing how much more responsive it is than my previous kite! Definitely going to have a big jump in my skills with this excellent equipment!
The only thing I ever found wrong with Prism kite is that they are pretty heavy for light winds. But overall they are high quality and I use to enjoy the Fanatic especially tip stabbing with it. I use to break the leading edge wing tip all the time because I was to lazy to walk down and pull the wing out of the ground after tip stabbing it.
I’m a newbie at kites and I always have a problem with the kite on the ground on a dead position. Pointing towards me and belly down. How can I do it for a takeoff from this position?. Thanks.
We ordered a prism kite a few days ago and have a few questions. 1) is this video a good tutorial for a beginner? 2) I noticed that people use straps on their wrists, is this something that you have to add on to your lines? I don't recall that being included in the purchase of the prism quantum kite. 3) we purchased a 10' tubular tail for his Prism Quantum, would it behoove him to learn the basics first then attach the tail later on? Thanks for your advice.

OK, you guys are not going to believe what happened. So I got my new kite yesterday afternoon from the big brown truck. I took it out, assembled it, attached the control lines and went outside but no wind. So I put it in the breezeway and went to bed. We got up this morning (Sat) to get ready to go to the beach. So I am loading the coolers and putting things in the car. I go and grab my brand new never flown stunt kite and the freakin' cat chewed through both bridles. I almost started crying. So the beach totally sucked. Beautiful 8-12 mph wind off Lake Michigan. Sucked big donkey D*@K!!!! Can anyone help me with getting the bridles rebuilt? I don't have a clue what kind of knots they use. I can only tie a square not which is not adjustable. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am going to start searching You Tube now. Anyone want a gray short hair tiger cat named Charlie? Thanks in advance Peace!

As I imagine the audio from the viral "Charlie bit me" video playing in the background. 😂

What kind of kite did you use for these demonstrations.?
This is good!
awesome liked and subbed

Thanks.
Not all kites are designed so that they can be nudged into the air from that position - in fact, most can not.
how are the dimentions of this kite at 4:20?
