  • My 2,122nd kite video. A rare good day provided the opportunity to put on a display at a beach we seldom fly at these days.

    It was indeed a good day! What a great display of lifters, spinners, and laundry. You guys do great work! I think New Brighton Beach should be renamed Kite Beach!

      We used to fly there all the time, Steve, but moved to North Beach a few years back when earthquake repairs to the pier made parking and access difficult in that area. We go back from time to time, and probably should do so more often. It's only a kilometre or so further to drive!

    Jim, thanks for a great show. I agree with you the new Spikey Spinner is a winner! Wishing you many more "Tight Lines" . Cheers

      Glad you enjoyed it, Ron. We don't often get a chance to do a lot in these short winter days, but that was one of the better ones.

    Love the new spinny thing Jim. One of the best flies for a while.

      Thanks, Steven. We were happy that the conditions were so good, as our winter hasn't often been very kind to kite-flyers so far.

      Thanks, Hal. I hope your weather in Montana is suitable for flying these days.

    Can be annoying when kids pull on your kites. Maybe Peter had a word with him. Great to see the old flying location again. It almost looked like the annual Kite Day festival.

      That big kid can be a special nuisance at times, Carl. It did feel a bit like Kite Day for a short while when the beach got a bit busy - I didn't have any video of that. We shall probably fly there again soon, and you are welcome to join us.

      Thank you. I am just going to watch your new video - good to see that you have some suitable weather for flying and are not too busy watching the football.

      Thanks, David. I hope all's going well for you, in what I gather is a changeable summer so far.

    Wow! Look at all of those kites flying. With that kind of weather and all of those beach goers out; it sure doeesn't look like it's Winter there.

    • @JimNicholls
      @JimNicholls  Před měsícem

      When we wake up to another frosty morning, as I've just done, it feels like winter, but our winters are not as severe as yours, and we seldom have snow except on the mountains.

    That was a nice video Jim. Beautiful display. That is a big Spinsock! Great dune shots. Thanks Jim!

      Glad you enjoyed it, Dewy. The dunes are not so high on that beach, but I did my best.

    The folks must be thinking that there's a mini Kite Festival is happening. The big kid looks like the same big kid the other day. Better watch your car and belongings.

    • @JimNicholls
      @JimNicholls  Před měsícem

      That big kid is a regular nuisance. We can't manage to keep him away.
