Dave and I attempt to fly an 11 foot long Pink Flamingo kite named “Floyd” (yes, Pink Floyd) in Squamish, British Columbia, Canada.
Internationally known as a kite-boarder’s paradise, we figured the wind conditions in Squamish would be perfect for a bit of kite flying. If the wind can lift humans on kite boards, then Floyd would have a chance. Wish us luck!
