Sorry - to busy this time of
year... don't have much time to get fancy with these... but at least I got them
online! GLSKC 99' |
|
| Mark and I arrive early Friday - to get some private time with the new Elixirs... we spent a few hours shooting pics and video of some of the new tricks. |  |
| Mark gives a happy wave to the video camera. |  |
| Later we set up the banners at the Prism demo ring to give some anxious fliers some time with the new kites. |  |
| Friday night M2S2 sponsored the indoor competition - the best part of the whole weekend for me. Steve Wozniak was quite a M.C. |  |
| Brian Siegel does his routine. As usual - grace in motion! |  |
| Heather from Nova Design group blew me away with her Great Deca
(indoor routine) later I was lucky enough to be given this kite! (Thanks Regis, Heather and Mark!) Now she has some budding competition! (yeah right). |
 |
| Jim Imperi did an awesome job in his competitive routine. |  |
| What can I say - LAM. If you think this is cool in a still shot - you should see the video. (talk nice to me and I'll get a clip online to download! Needless to say - I'm bringing my UL rev to the next M2S2 indoor fly! |
 |
| Some banners show the heavy winds |  |
| Mackinaw kite shop sponsors the event. |
 |
| Team Hi 5 - breaks down after a wonderful presentation. |  |
| Some M2S2'ers on the side lines! |  |
| Just some pretty color - I like the large stack of Quads. |  |
| Some cool formation flying - some of the (little) competition I was
able to shoot. (didn't get a chance to shoot much of it).
|
 |
| Brian and Julie - a great pairs routine - Brian was so pleased he gave her a hung and kiss in front of thousands of spectators (ahwwwww)! |  |
| and the winners are... |  |
| Jim Imperi shows Mark a thing or two with the new Prism Stylus. |  |
| Lam does his demo's in the Rev demo ring... which always had a nice line of people waiting to try a quad. |  |
| Mark aids a new flyer in some mini-power kiting skills. (stylus 1.8) I wonder who's having more fun? Check those smiles. |  |
| Team Hi5 poses for some pics - Just one of several great ones... Love those VOODOO'S |  |
| Dodd and ? at the Mac kite shop party afterwards... |  |
| The commercial tent... it's a buying frenzy. |  |
| Sunday?!!?!?! weather was crap - about all we could fly in that
wind was vented Quads. I talked Mark into putting away the duals and trying out some
Quad line fun. (left to right) Mark, Me, Bob.

 |
| Bob and I locked in a Rev - refuel. Monday... after the GLSKC... winds clocked at 28-30 and we're wearing long underwear, gloves and hoods! - 4 days later we're in the same place in nothing but shorts and temps in the 90's. (only in Michigan!) |  |
