>ZZ321BOOM /////// Quad lining a Rok?

I think I have done this on another planet one time... Take the Rocky Coocoo
and lay it on it's side... hook the right two fly lines up to ends of what is
now the right vertigo spreader and the left two that are left (right?) up to
what is now the left (that's right!) vertigo spreader.
Take the tension off the sail? Cain't remember nothin'.
Fly it up into the endless sky and get used to tilting it back into the
original position if you haven't disected the graphics yet. (what?)

To make a hit record, Steve... you have to make a round kite... maybe the
Rocky Horror Picture Rok frame would work, but you need to reinFORCE the
outside of the circle with a fiberglasp rod in bury.
I prefer a recTANGULAR flame frame (god, I'm insane) instead of the Rok tick
tock.

I took a peek... very nice. I, personally, would turn the kite on its side and
hook the fly lines up to the same bridle points listed... this should give it a
Rev style handle control... makes sense, then to change the graphics, but you
can also tilt the kite after launch.
If the outside rod is continuous, break it at a couple of points (far left - 9
o'clock and far right - 3 o'clock) and the kite should have better control...
Hope to see this kite somewhere... can I fly it? Please? Pretty please?

Roger
