Sorry, could not resist putting up some images of flying at Kahana on Oahu last Saturday. Local pilot was snapping images as I scored a sweet 2.5 hour flight.
Kahana Bay is about as pretty as it comes... Have a great New Year everyone.

looks sweet!!
How much to get into that?
I went tandem in Interlachen...I thought it was cool when we just ran off a steep hill until our feet were dangling. then the pilot let me steer down after we went way up. I said, "I can kiteboard"

In the process of working to get my basic instructor license, and then will be working to turn all you kiters into paraglider pilots. Maui has one of the best learning hills around, and then we have Oahu for world class ridge soaring.
