Kite Party 2005 was my first kiting event. I could only make it for a few hours on Saturday, but it was worth it. I did not fly. Putting the Quantum up in those winds on short lines was not what I had in mind. I had a great time watching everyone-else tear up the beach. I really liked the team ballet stuff too. A sight I've never seen... I would not have expected to be so moved by the teams. I was having even more fun when the freestyle kites came back on the sand. I have to give these guys allot of respect. I know what it takes to pull off the tricks they were doing in high winds. It's not my stile, but I like to watch it and I respect the pilots who can do it.

Single Line Stuff.
I think this was just plain wrong of me to do. I couldn't help, however, when I seen one giant single line kite tangle around another giant single line kite, then they both crashed into yet another giant single line kite and they all came crashing down.

Like I said I know it was bad of me to laugh at this, but it was really the only highlight of the single line stuff while I was there. Sorry SL guys.
