Charging...

I have been allowed to charge my Soloshot base and tag so that it is already to play with once I officially get it on my birthday...

But I have just noticed a problem the thread on my tripod is 1/4 and the hole on the Soloshot is 3/8 so they don't match. DON'T PANIC!

I will just have to get an adaptor before Thursday!

Birthday weather...

It's looking good for a birthday buggy! And hopefully try out the soloshot.

Forty-four...

It's less than a month to my birthday (four weeks today to be exact!)! I'm hoping to get a quadcoptor that I can use as a video platform.

As always I have a few other things on my radar!

Contact me for the full list!

Dilemma...

It's my Birthday at the beginning of April and usually by now, well straight after Christmas, I have a list of things I need!

This year I have no idea what I want, what a dilemma!

Any ideas - send them on a postcard!

Paintballing...

For her 13th birthday my daughter wanted to go paintballing - I was the responsible adult!

forty-two

Is it the answer to the ultimate question, of life, the universe and everything?

Maybe! But today is also my 42nd birthday.

No work today as the kids are off school but I am keeping my fingers crossed that I may get a couple of hours in the buggy...

C'mon wind!

Never satisfied...

It's my birthday a week today and I have been mulling over what new stuff would satisfy my desires!

I have got some brilliant kit - my 4m Ozone Method is an incredible kite and I love it and after flying it seriously powered up I can't wait to do it again.

My Peter Lynn comp xr+ - now has the 140cm gigastrong axle, the longer stronger side frames, a custom back rest and new rear tyres. It inspires confidence allows me to hold down more power and I am so glad I didn't fork out for a bigger heavier buggy. (these upgrades were officially an early Birthday present!)

But what is it about this sport that means you are always on the look out for the next new thing?

For me it is now a couple more Methods - one bigger and one smaller, to complete my quiver. But I am glad that I didn't have a smaller kite on Friday as I would have probably gone with that rather than a fully powered up 4m...

I would love to try Ozone's Turbo bar as well - but how can you justify spending $250 and might not like flying on a bar? I would still like to try one though!

I now want a new Garmin Etrex 10 - I'm convinced on Friday my top speed should have been more like 65kph and that my Etrex H had frozen (it has done it numerous times before!). Then I have been unable to download the data off my Etrex H - annoying!

I reckon $1500 would do it - but then I'm sure that still wouldn't be the end of it! 

And what do my kids want to get me...

a onesie!
