I met Jean Francios and Helen from Montreal 4 years ago kiting at Chapin Beach. They are big Wainman Hawaii fans and intorduced me to the family and Rabbit Gang. Around three years ago I saw the first Wainman kite and thought "WTF is that batmobile looking kite" Helen came through ripping tricks with Jean Francios sitting on the beach drooling waiting his turn.

We had become closer friends then and they were starting to promote Wainman and introduced me to Sean Richman at the time who became a good friend. They sent me a quiver and I began spreading the WH love here in NE with its first quiver of Rabbits.

Since then WH has been amazing with there warranty service and willingness to get involved. On my honeymoon to Maui I got my gear locked up at a closed Fed Ex for half my trip. Lou Wainman got me out on his gear which I termed "Flying Airforce One" and then even invited me back the next day for a second session. After meeting that guy I decided holy shit... This guy really has contributed and is happy to share the stoke!

So we were hoping to get the new quiver here for TD8 but it has not cleared customs Sad JF and Helen were planning to have attended. I made a phone call to Drew at WH and with his amazing sense of customer support decided to send a care package that just surprised me at my desk!

Kudos Drew, JF, Helen, Lou, and Wainman to contributing to TD8 event!

I'm bummed the kites didn't make it but Drew is the man. Thanks for the swag Drew!!!! I can't wait to see and fly the new kite designs. They made them more high aspect and slimmer leading edge.
