    I am flattered this footage has become so popular all of a sudden. First, it's definitely not fake Second, I'm the pilot, and I own the store that sells these kites. The model I'm flying is a 1.5 Custom SUL in the Black/Lime color pattern. Anyone that would like to learn is more than welcome to visit the pier, I will happily take you down to the beach and teach you. If you have questions, please call the store, I'm happy to talk to you about them. Someone posted there are now probably 80,000 looking for where to buy one....that would be spectacular. I don't quite have that many in stock, but I have 100 or so! Thank you all for the kind comments, it was VERY fun to do, that kid was awesome! I hope he comes in again and says hello.
    Best,

      *That was very dangerous flying your spinning kite next to that kids face and eyes* then stopping your kite close to his head and to those people walking by. Its very irresponsible kite flying which would have got you thrown off the kite park where I fly. Rule number 1 ...dont fly near or above people. Its dangerous! and can result in lost or damaged eyes, plus burns and cuts from kite lines. 0:20

    Wow, that kite looked alive! If I didn't notice the shadow, the pilot and the reaction of those up on the pier, I'd have sworn this kite was computer generated. Amazing how something made from nylon could be brought to life.

    Hey Scott,
    I'm honored to be compared with JB, but I'm sorry to report, that is not John at the helm, it is actually yours truly. Also, the kite is not his signature B Series, it's one of our Custom Rev 1.5's (that has the same Icarex sail material, frame, bridle, etc. as a B Series, B Pro, etc.). They are on my web site in various colors and models if you'd like to check them out. The exact model being flown in this footage is a SUL (which actually isn't available in a B Series) with a 2 wrap frame on 50# line at 75', in about 4-5 MPH of wind. Thank you for your comment, I know John will appreciate the comparison also!

    • @scottralston130
      @scottralston130 9 років тому +3

      So, so Sorry Dave and JB, when I saw the walking thing that's where I went with it and since I haven't seen the kite, figured it was JB's. Wow, I went wrong on every possible level... Guess I shouldn't try and be a knowitall. Props to you Dave, I guess now I should run up and buy my next kite at the Kite Connection, yes?... I am closer now, are you still on the pier? BTW is there going to be a KP this year?

    • @TheKiteConnection

I have become very comfortable setting up and getting it up in the sky. I have had about 4-5 hard crashes and no frame work broke so it was amazing. Crashing becomes less as you fly more. I am hoping with the good weather coming in I can hone in my my skills and work on clock work.

    Wow. I passed by that kite store before longggg ago but never went in. Always thought about it though cuz I really wanted a delta wing.

    This is an amazing kite. I cannot believe how controllable it is. I just wish I could afford one. But even if I could, I would never get to fly it much since I do not live near a beach. I still would like to fly one though.

      But you don't really need a beach, an empty school yard or field works too. :)
