Now that the Second Annual West Coast Rev Clinic is now becoming a memory, I am pacing the halls and counting the days until the team clinic! Come on folks, This will be held at a beautiful park, and we will have lots of bystanders looking on in absolute amazement.

John, having me seen fly, do you think I would be too much of a burden at this clinic? I promise to do my homework daily on the beaches in Cancun. Let me know :blushing:

I would say with out reservation that you need to come on up for the team clinic. I found that I was learning skills much faster than I would have without flying with others. Work on your hover, and make sure you can make turns in all directions and in all attitudes without losing forward momentum. I have been flying for 7 months, just getting to the level of confidence it takes, and I am itching to get it on!

No problem Manny, you were a pleasure to have with us last weekend...

I especially like your questions, I know you're thinking about the task at hand and how to better understand it.

Come on up for the team clinic. ;)

All set Manny... 8 registered, just 8 slots left!

Anyone have a lead on camping in the Kite Henge area?

That info would make a good addition to the RevGuild site too. ;)

Glad to hear that. I DO promise to do my homework EVERY day in Cancun, but I need to know what gives me the better hover: Margeritas or Screwdrivers. Please advise :matrix:

Not sure how many fliers we'll have for the team clinic, but certainly for WSIKF we'll want to be familiar with the grid concept.

Some wicked video...

I'm not half as adept at it as Mr Hoath, but everyone seemed to respond well at our last clinic.

It feels odd the first few times, as the whole dimension of the window and flier positioning changes a bit. :)

A smaller grid, with just 12 kites...

Dynamic is the same, it's all about the columns and rows. ;)

Beyond that, "groups of"... Groups of 4, groups of six, etc.

I still need to talk to my mom, and get a job to save up for gas and admission. There are a couple of rev flyers in Spokane, but they rarely get out, and I don't think they are ready for a Team Clinic. However, if there is someone along the way from Spokane, I'd be happy to pick you up and split gas cost and such.
