Hey all!

My name is Corey. I live in Portland, Oregon. I have recently found an interest in stunt kiting and I have come to the point where I'd love to move up with my gear. I attached a photo of my girlfriend flying my kite! She was resistant to try it at first, but then she got into it! Haha

    BTW- In a past life I was a goat until Joel had me sacrificed.

​Lets be clear about this.....

1) The goats name was Jason
2) YOU fed it the banana
3) NEXT time we went to Sandy Point and asked at the cafe they told us "Oh, sorry Jason the goat has died."

Jason sounds like he might have been a nice kid... we regretfully mourn his loss

 

On the subject of speed; I haven't clocked a speed with my Nasa's yet, but I'm pretty sure that I've gotten up around 20 mph (if not over 20 mph) on Saint Simons Island, GA with my 5.5m... not sure what that is in kph though :D

Hi. My name is Dan and my wife won't let me buy a new kite! I need this kite!

​Yeah, sometimes it's hard to explain that they're like golf clubs....you can't play a round of golf properly with just one club!!   What have you got presently, Dan?

Greetings!

I'm Ari from Vancouver, Canada and it's been a pleasure talking with other fellow kiters on here and in general. I'm quite new to power kiting and would really benefit from a Nasa Star. In a month or two I'm planning on getting my first bug so this would definitely  be fun to try out with the Nasa. I own a PL Hornet 3.0m and love it! Thanks for the awesome contest. I will be sure to spread the word  with a few buddies of mine who haven't joined this forum yet. :dance:

 

Much love from Vancouver!

Cheers, Ari

Hi my name is Sandra.  My husband Tony bought some Nasa Star 2's but I nicked them. So if I won the three I could give him back the Star Two's.

Husband v wife - bring it on! My money's on the Mrs!

Put me in the draw.

Hi guys my name is Ralph I would like to give this kite another chance now that I seen it in action with someone who knows how to fly it. I regret selling the 3.2 M but the odds look good for winning this kite.

Good luck to all and may the best man / women win

Hey Everyone!

I started with a 4 line kite last summer, quickly got a mountainboard, and then this spring hit the water for some lessons and bought some gear.  Kiting upwind and hitting transitions so my next step is jumping!

I've heard great things about the NS3s and would love to try one out.  Haven't been landboarding much as my fields have gusty winds, which I've heard is what the NSs are good for!

Ok I'll make the odds 33!

I have been trying to make some of these and after learning what it takes I now certainly appreciate ( and applaud!) the folks that do ...

I would love to have a professionally made one, but like DanH, I'm not sure my better half would agree to MORE kites....! unless I was lucky enough to win one!

Please include my name in the drawing...

Thanks John and Borne Kites for this event!:Emoticons-for-xk:

Count me in! This is a great reason to finally make an account here. New site looks great! I love the lighter theme and mobile view.

Don't forget the great people and all the really useful info:round-thumbs-up:
