I just saw an awesome demonstration of control by Team RevRiders MMTB on Youtube. Does anybody know what they were flying and who they are? I want to do that when I grow up.

Mitch,

If you are referring to http://www.youtube.c...h?v=7AMdcYfIn0Y
They are (l to r from the back) Laura Berg of NJ, Rich Comras of NJ, and Scott Wieder of RI. They are frequent flyers at Liberty Park NJ, and Wildwood NJ. Scott is the organizer of this fine group.

REV RIDERS

We started our team in June of this year. in the Northeast US, Where are you?
I live in Rhode Island,
Laura Berg and Rich Comras from New Jersey, were flying Martin Lester Masterpiece series 1.5 Revolutions, I was flying a RED/ STD B series 1.5. that has almost 2 full years of hard flying on it and like a old glove fits perfectly.
We Have flown with many others to learn our choreographed routine here in the Northeast.
I have flown some Quad team years ago and have always wanted to put it together again. We use many of the Animated team moves that are on the Revolution web site,,
http://www.revkites....main/Animations.

These moves makes it easy to get a look on your own computer, at some cool team moves, over the last couple of years I have flown these types of moves in mega flies with many flyers at festivals through out the east.
Our next stop will be at, RIIS Park, in Rockaway, NEW YORK on Sept 12th and 13th, If your close, come on down, introduce yourself, I like to meet new people.

scotty and the crew
You guys did a great job and its amazing what you can do with 3 people. Keep up the good work and hope to practice with ya soon again.

[Scott A.]

Sammy David you are a Rider, You have helped this team form and will always be apart of it. Thanks for your help! and oh by the way for all the newer flyers, Sammy has only flown Rev's for about a year already doing the team thing remembering a full 5 minute routine. Proof with the whole team concept many can have the great feeling, jump in, own your hover and ride them brakes.
We have 8 or 9 who have at least flown and learned the Riders on the Storm Remix. Each one has brought there own touch. It will only get bigger and better.

I'll be at Riis Park in two weeks (!) babysitting my big gear, but as usual I'll have my rev bag with me and will try to get away from the show kites for a bit!

Good deal Jeff,
We'll keep your spot on the line, I think it would be a good idea to have a radio with earpiece so we can communicate smoothly during the mega stuff.

Hi Simon-
How have you been?
That's a coooooool version of Riders!!!! Thanks....
We had a great time with it in WSIKF. The two teams that competed, us and Island Quad, did a demo together afterward! What a good time! Do you think you guys will be over here any time soon, to play in our sandbox?
Take care!

Thanks for the info and for the link to the animations! Mind-boggling. And congrats on putting together your own winning team. Your group flies with real grace and a kind of ease that does not lack snap but has a kind of slow fluidity that I appreciate. I am an utter newbie but watching your clips is an inspiration to put up my duel line kites for a while and try this. I am in St. Louis, MO. Not famous kite country. I wonder if there area festivals in the midwest? Chicago, surely.

Also, I bought a Rev II on a whim but find it hard to learn on in our bumpy, low winds. I can put together the money to get what I want but limited time! Would you start on a I or a B1.5, if you had acrobatic aspirations? I can't imagine I'll be team flying in a year, but that's an encouraging thought. Thanks!

Mitch
