Place: Cosmo Park, Columbia, MO
Kites: E2 on 85' lines
Wind: 15-20 mph, gusty
Weather: sunny, 66º
Another beautiful day for flying! With a higher wind again, I tried a new technique (for me) for launching. I drove a stake (actually an old screwdriver) into the ground and looped the wrist straps over it. I then stretched the lines to the kite which was set on its wing tips leaning back at a 45º angle, held there by the wind, waiting to be launched.
Even though the wind was higher, with the E2 kite adjusted for it, some of the tricks still seemed to work OK. I was even able to get a few decent axels!
