The past year has flown by and it has been a busy one. But I didn’t realize it has been a year since I had written anything. And it hasn’t been because we haven’t been flying anything. There have been festivals and workshops and just everyday flying. I just haven’t been writing. So here’s to beginning again and hopefully doing better.
Winter weather makes kite flying “iffy”, so the first beautiful day was late January. Winds were very strong and gusty but steadied out as the morning progressed. If fact, it was so nice on the beach, we could have stayed out all day except for the fact we had no food or drink with us.
Because the wind was so strong, I only put up three kites. I only flew one of my latest builds because I didn’t want to risk broken spars and torn skin. I knew my rokakku could handle it. So after some bridle tuning, my Birds rokakku took to the air. To keep it company, I also flew my Green Dragon dragon kite and one of my power sleds.
The power sled and green dragon are patterns that are no longer available. So glad I purchased them when I did. I have the same power sled color scheme in two other sizes of power sleds. Here’s hoping this weekend was a sign of the weather changing in our favor and there will be more frequent kite flys to come.
Fair Winds All
