[Vid} Prism Tensor 3.1 maiden flight
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.
I think the video turned out pretty well.

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.
Hello world.

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.

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.
