True thermal PV day.
Thinking that the bigger kite is gonna give me extra kiting days,
expecially at PV.
Vern's 13M was doing fine,
but 17 is just that much more fun in light conditions.
Nice fall, sunny day.
Vern and I, pretty much had the reservoir to ourselves.

Sounds like fun, Deer Creek was about the same. Did you get a Zephur?

Zephyr it is,
I'm liking the quickness for a big kite.
Nothing like the big kites I've had in the past,
sucker rips up wind also..

I thought I would have been on it all the time in SPI,
but only used it for a couple of hours.
I can't believe I flew my 9M more than my big kite in SPI
