I am looking for a kite which can handle this and still be &enjoyable to fly (not to pull my arms off). I am considering two kites *which I think can do the job. The North Shore VIP from TOTL or the *Legend Moriah, mfr. unknown. * *Thanks in advance! * *George Cameron (cameron1@llnl.gov) At the Golden Gate Challenge in San Francisco this week-end, Larry Navarro flew to a first place finish in Intermediate Individual Ballet using a borrowed (mine) Legend Vented IQ. Very strange weather. Just before the intermediate ballet and quadline events started, within the space of about 10 minutes the wind went from around 1-3, to 18-20 mph. He flew the VIQ on 150#, 105' lines with no screens. He did axels off both sides, tip stands and controlled mid-routine landings. Very nice choreography to slow music that included lyrics in Spanish. I wish I had done as well, but it was fun anyway.

Thanks! P.S. I guess I gotta try this Legend vented...I am a NSR VIP man myself (Thanks to Darrin Skinner for starting the whole VIP concept years ago!) ********************************* rschultz@ix.netcom.com ********************************* The only thing we have to fear is Netsnoozer itself! ********************************* = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
