BTW, this is #2 for me too.

I went in 2001 and built a Pizzaz sport ktie and a Bargello Noodle.

If I Remember Correctly, on the noodle kite, I went thru 6 bobbins of V33 thread in that single day. What a wonderfull way to learn to sew straight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No Bernie-I think it is a very simple kite with a continuous leading edge spar; which is nothing new, but the way the sail is cut gives it a certain "je ne sais quoi". I still have not set up my web site, therefore cannot share pics directly, but let see if I can't find a web site.

Cheers

Well I will be there. I'll even be teaching a class. Seeing that there are people here who are signing up will definitely inspire me to do my best. Harold, nice to see that you'll be there.
