Glad you enjoyed it, Mark. I'm doing my best to keep going, but the aging process doesn't slow down, and things get harder all the time.

Our pleasure, Craig!

They have, but a lot of people never see kites and are not aware of that.

The Scintillation is a very attractive and unusual kite, but sadly it has been out of production for a few years now, like most of Into The Wind's designs.

I'm glad you enjoyed it, Dewey. Flying days seem to be getting fewer at the moment as we head into winter and the weather is more unsettled, but we do our best to fly whenever possible.

We've been a bit short of suitable weather in the last week or so, Evan, but I'm trying to fly when ever possible. I'm glad yo enjoyed it.

We just had another pleasant Sunday fly today, Carl. Peter, Colin and Brendan were all there, but you were absent without leave again. I expect to see you back on parade soon, or a court martial might have to be considered.

Glad you liked it, Ron.

It's attractive and different. Very sad that most of the Into The Wind kites are still out of production, and it's looking more and more likely that most of them will never return.

I'm also sorry to see the decline in they kite inventory. Bought 4 or 5 kites, and I wanted to add more. Well, I still can enjoy your videos

It's a pity that Butterfly is not made anymore. You are certainly having a busy year, so I hope you can relax a little on your vacation trips, although I know you still work on your KZfaq videos. I look forward to seeing all of your productions. Have fun!

@@JimNicholls I enjoy making movies and have been doing this since the days of VHS tapes in the 1970s, long before KZfaq came into existence. I love it when I am able to capture images of places and people in their natural surroundings. Just like you finding happiness in flying kites and sharing them with people. I love kite flying when I was a kid. So now I find time to watch your videos as this reminds me of my happy days. My kites were simple hand made, crude ones back then.

It's a nice kite, and one of very few that I have with wooden spars.

I hope you were paying attention to your driving, Jiang, and not looking too much at the kites!

That sounds a bit late in the season, Hal, but good to know that it's going to warm up! We are having frosty mornings, but snow is a rarity here, at least in the city, although of course plenty on the mountains.

I fitted a thin spar into the hem on the front of the kite (the arch), which stopped the arch from sometimes collapsing and causing the kite to dive or crash. The last time I spoke to ITW they were hoping to get a few more kites back into production this year, but I don't know if it will happen. I made all the videos for their website and KZfaq channel, and I was very sad when they struck problems with the loss of their factory in China and were unable to make anything for a long time. A few things are available again, like the Levitation deltas, but it's far from being the great source of kites that it once was.

Both gone to new homes. I had to dispose of quite a few of my more valuable kites as money is tight these days. They were all bought in days when I was earning a reasonable income and could afford such "luxuries"!
