Skimac, I know that there are a lot of guys who go out to Lake Dillon Reservoir on the way to Brecknridge (did I spell it right?). Get in touch with Motz at for local information. -Eric (FYI I go under both the Eric Byers & snowkit usernames, one for administrative and the other is normally for forum posts) |

Skimac, I've been kiting since last winter (so new to the sport) and live in Boulder. I purposely didn't buy a ski pass this year since I'm planning on heading up to the mountains/Lake Dillon as much as possible this winter. Let me know if you are interested in carpooling! Also, check out Anton's website at coloradokiteforce.com... cheers, Robyn |

Hey, I live in Boulder and work at INTO THE WIND (the kite store on Pearl St.) The store(me and another employee) are getting very involved with the power kiting/traction sports. Not to sound like an add but we do sell trainer kites and will soon sell full sized kites. (We also sell Mountain Boards which is great for ALL SEASON KITEBOARDING!!!) We will also be heading up to the Mountains this season and all the events this season. If you are ever on Pearl St. just come on in and ask for Justin or Chris and we will talk your ear off!!! |

Kris - in response to your post: "hey my name is kris and I'm from Eagle co and go to dillon alot!" I live in LA, but am coming out to Vail - Avon area to ski March 7 - 10th. Any chance you want to go to Dillon sometime in there... I am going to bring my Kite and skis... All I'll bring is my 12m North Vegas...? I talked to a guy in the shop and he said that's fine? Let me know- ROB

Hey Rob. that 12meter Vegas should work fine. I don't know if that is a weekend or not , but if it is I should be down there for sure. were I live is in Eagle(about 30-45 miles away from Vail), but I will probably see you there. I'm about the only kid there so you won't miss me! It is a little tricky to get to the launch spot the first time but if you go to http://www.coloradokiteforce.com it will give you directions. See you out there!!! Kris |

 Cool Bret ! Yeah I'll come by on Saturday, I have a green and yellow 12m North Vegas. I did not bring my pump, so will have to find one, but i'll look for your guys. Thanks for the reply. I banged up my knee pretty good skiing at Vail today, so I hope it's better.

well... I did make it there, but it was just after you guys had finished on Saturday. I was stuck in Vail because they shut down the pass for about 4 hrs.  I was so bummed. By the time I got there, it looked like there were no kites up, and some guy told me that it was a GREAT day ... and there were 1,000's of people there. I was all set to go, kite, harness, skis- So I'll have to make it happen next year. My knee healed too. How was it, any pics online that I can check out of the event.
