For Fathers day I got a new kite! This is my wife and I taking it out for the first time and having a bit of fun.

:wee:

I think the video turned out pretty well.

I am looking forward to it. The wife felt a bit more comfortable on the bar to start with

A good kite for me is a hard thing to find. For Father's Day I was looking to get a good one for my dad since he used to take us out when we were kids. But I'm just not sure where to go for good kites. Definitely not Walmart I'm sure.

good stuff......... fathers day kites I think are the best kites..... my fam hooked me up w/ a 75$ Frankenstein job.
I will cherish it forever…... I would say its gonna be my burial cloth, but I think its just better t to make it a yearly tradition…….

Good advice abkayak. I like the prism kites and just got my Dad a 1.2 for fathers day. Hes a bit older so depending on his age and ability a 1.4 or 1.9 is a good intro.

Way to Go !

Your wifes personality shines through. I can tell she is my kind of women when I see her getting yanked by the kite and that giant smile on explodes on her face !

I can see that you will both really enjoy this sport!

+1 for changing it up to handles !

Thanks Bladerunner. I put the handles on and WOW what a difference. The responsiveness is much better and the brake lines make it more interesting to fly.
