P.S. Sorry.... just noticed you sent me a question via U2U and I totally dropped the ball on it. I am terrible about noticing when people send me U2Us. My profile email is a much better way to reach me, and for me to set reminders (flag emails) for response. Again... apologies.

Haha, well I wouldn't complain if they offered ! :D

No worries, I think its sorted now. Didn't notice your email, will use that in future

rising apathy ....arousing indeed , then so easily phalls to flow.

and peak boredom is the best launch pad!

nice !

the tertiary axis i suppose may house FEAR and LOVE , with radii of guilt shame, gluttony and regret.

love it made my day

I must say my favorite model. I recommend to any and all beginners. I am only rich enough to afford a 2m and 5m. It's so stable and loves the inland gusty winds better than most kites do.

Needs a third dimension for "wind condition"

Hmmm, yes... Recognition of each axis combined with perspective of where one falls shows metacognitive control in the feat of overpowering one's fear... Says the cognitive psychologist.

The Narrative Psychologist might utilize each aspect as a character in the story of overcoming boredom and apathy reflecting on how the innate qualities of each contributes to its interaction with its neighbor and in turn effecting functioning.

The Freudian might refer to "flow" as the Ego in that it acts as the buffer between arousal (Id) and control (super-ego)... But Freud was a bit of a weirdo and would likely define "arousal" in a much different way :o

Psychological theory... Weeeeeeeee

Take the last 2 nights... low wind sessions, just powered on the S3 21 and although I wasn't boosting to the moon - which I totally love - I had kick-ass sessions trying multiple rotations :D

Low skill level though... maybe it needs a fourth dimension too :o
