I spent some time on refreshing and updating the 61/49 page in the shop. In addition to changing some of the “stock” color combinations and layouts, I worked on making it work better and easier. I hope you’ll stop by. I’d enjoy hearing your thoughts on the changes!

Review your Blue Moon kite?
Please consider leaving a review of your Blue Moon kite. On the shop pages of the BMK website, you’ll find a place to let the world know what you think of your kite and/or doing business with BMK. In addition to displaying on the deposit pages, your review will also be added to the bottom of the main page for each kite. Each of my current kites has a page to order by making a deposit.
I’m looking for any and all feedback. If it’s 5 Stars, thank you, but any honest and considered review is appreciated. This is a good time to suggest improvements!
The pages are:
Ichiban – https://bluemoonkites.net/shop/ichiban-deposit/
Reprise – https://bluemoonkites.net/shop/reprise-deposit/
MacStar – https://bluemoonkites.net/shop/macstar-deposit/
61/49 – https://bluemoonkites.net/shop/6149-deposit/
Thanks!
Turning the page…
The book has been closed on sport kite orders, and I’m busy designing the next generation of BMK single-line kites.
Thank you, to all that have been a part of my business, and my life in kiting. People change, and interests and markets shift. It’s time to turn the page to the next chapter of this kiting story.

Is it odd that I love making patterns? If I had to pick one thing that I enjoy the most about making kites (besides watching someone fly one of my designs with a big grin on their face), it would be making patterns. Maybe it’s because once I get a design to the point where I can do final refinements on the pattern, the rest of the process can be put on autopilot. Cutting, scraping and sanding the edges of a perfect progressive curve, making sure to leave enough of an entrance flat to make it easy to hem the edge smoothly and repeatably? Yeah, probably a little odd, but I’m OK with that. 😉
Moonie stops by for a visit
After a self-imposed exile to Costa Rica, my old friend Moonie showed up at 3 AM a couple of days ago with a case of good beer and a stack of Warren Zevon cassette tapes. He was mumbling something under his breath about kites and politics and how you just can’t find good grits in Central America. The only cassette player is in my old truck, so we sat out in the driveway until dawn drinking his beer, telling lies, and making big plans. I think we woke up the lady next door blasting Lawyers, Guns, and Money. We finished off the beer listening to Don’t Let Us Get Sick just as the sun came up over Hibriten Mountain.
