Anyone going up today? Wind sounds pretty gusty outside my window at the mo, I'm guessin it'll be pretty savage up at cleeve, the weather station is saying ~25-30 mph winds. Smallest kite I have is a 4.9 Blade 4..........should be fun! :).......:eek:!

weather station is not massivly true in my opinion.. think it gets lots of turbulence in the location it is :o so in my opinion doesnt give a true representation of smooth wind

 

gives a good rough idea of wind speed tho

 

yesterday was showing pritty nasty gusts but was really smooth being an eastly direction - i just needed a smaller kite haha

If anyone finds a Ben Sherman wallet up on Cleeve could they please let me know, it's black with red white and blue threads to the bottom right, it has a very important card in it that I require for work, I would be extremely grateful to anyone who finds it! Lost it sometime yesterday and I have a suspicion it may be somewhere on Cleeve hill, I'll probably be up there later (flying a 4.9 Blade 4) if anyone spots it,

 

Cheers,

Kieran

Wallet located, thanks ever so much to Dell for finding and hanging onto it, saved me a hell of a lot of hassle! Another great session up on Cleeve, unfortunately couldn't stay long because my arms began to give in after about an hour and a half! Cheers to Andy for all the help setting up!

 

Bring on next weekend! :)

Epic session today! Towards the end, I was getting 5 seconds hang time off the lip, (don't tell the ranger...... shhhhh...) Great to see everyone up there. Sorry about my nearly catastrophic dismount! See you all up there very soon. :)

Really great to meet everyone again or for the first time today.....Hopefully have some of the photos from Ian uploaded here before too long.

 

I got spanked so bad today Max Mosely would have been proud.....First my Bego 200 had me, then the 400, then Dell's 3m Twister II, but I was grinning like an idiot throughout and have been ever since (although a bit of grimacing has taken place now the adrenaline's worn off). ;)

 

Sorry to Rhys for the attempted amputation below the knee! :o

 

Fair play to Kieran for getting that Blade out (saw you hurtling down the field while we were loading the car).....Mine never even made it out of the car!

 

All the best

Sunday was stonking good fun! Great to see everyone up there again and meeting all the others I'd not met before :) Best laugh had to be Andy (Squarehead) getting yanked up into the sky by my 3m Twister! Huge air that was a little unexpected I think! lol I used that kite all day on my board and it really shifted, but nowhere near as quick as Tom with his Frenzy!

Keiran, it was Kyle that found your wallet mate, I can't take credit for that :) Talking of finding stuff, Wayne lost his gold watch up there so if anyone found it please drop me a line!

Not 'arf! :eek:

 

I'm used to doing small jumps with my 3m Blade III when it's blowing a bit, but that little Twister was really going for it.....I may have hooned it just it a little more than was strictly neccessary under the circumstances I suppose, but sometimes you just gotta! :p

 

All the best

PS - I've got Ian's pics uploaded to another PC.....Will be posting them here and in the WKM section.

yep andy that was a cool but VIOLENT lift that twister dealt you gotta admit i enjoyed watching that, it made a change to see it instead of feeling it cos my lil beamer 3 seemed to be powered by the devil and kept beating the crap out of me ... see ya soon .. phil

We should all be up there Saturday late morning, anyone else going to partake in wind powered nonsense? Doesn't look as tho it'll be as windy this weekend. Still, should be a good laugh! :)

 

Yeah Dudes!!! Should be getting up there at some point tomorrow to join you for some more wind powered Bouncy Bouncy action!!!

should be up there at some point gotta try the 2nd hand buster out for its first fly spent about 2hours today sorting the spaggheti wound lines the previous owner packed it away with ...25 meters laid out in a 10 meter garden is not a lot of fun and a tad frustrating :(
