As the host of the 2009 Superfly Open Taylor has harnessed his youthful enthusiasm tempered with an air about him that feels much older than his red-tinged mohawk and boyish looks. With an impressive ability to make important connections and some interesting marketing ideas, Utah Urban Surf might be the first of the next wave of kite shops. Taylor has a relationship with Liquid Force kites and is ramping up operations to offer retail, lessons and rentals. If you are eager to get into snowkiting make it up to Powder Mountain Ski Resort for the Superfly Open, March 13th-15th, 2009 and get to know Utah Urban Surf.

Over the last year my eyes have been opened to so many more people and places to snowkite. I recently discovered that in Quebec, Canada, there is a large and quickly growing community with people like Benoit Tremblay of Concept Air that has been quietly developing gear for twenty years. It was a great pleasure to meet him and his friends at the Snowkite Summit in December. Through Drift we want to introduce you to amazing people just like him. Looking forward, I am excited to be a part of helping bring snowkiters across the globe together so we can all learn from each other. We will inevitably improve our skills, find new locations and help guide snowkiting into a bright future. We’d like to thank everyone who believed in Drift from the beginning and helped to make the first issue a reality.

A look at our earth from the poles is even more revealing. The land masses of the Northern Hemisphere extend much further north while in the southern hemisphere there is the Antarctic in the polar region but the temperate zone is covered mostly by the oceans. Your choices are South America, Australia or New Zealand. — continued 28 www.driftsnowkitemag.com There’s a reason the world champion chooses to return year after year. Chasta feeling at home in 30 knots on a 6m at Cardrona. PHOTO: Jon Imhoof www.driftsnowkitemag.com 29 NewZealandSnowkite Guide I guess it is human nature to believe that things must be better somewhere else. The grass is always greener or in this case the snow and wind is always better-on the other side of the fence. So I started the winter thinking Australia was the place, or even Chile or somewhere else in South America. Here in little ol’ New Zealand the mountains are too steep and surely the first few waves of snowkiting pioneers had already discovered the only really good spot in the country was Snowfarm on the Waiorau range. A few months later and I realize I couldn’t have been more wrong, after a season of missions that revealed New Zealand is a snowkiting paradise. If you are after easily accessible park and ride conditions it is true that the choices are limited. But if you love a mission and the rewards of backcountry exploration, there could be few places on earth that could match the Southern Alps. There’s a reason the world champion chooses to return year after year. Chasta could be in Tahiti enjoying kitesurfing in his own backyard in conditions most of us would kill for. Instead, he chooses to spend a good deal of time in New Zealand because he loves it. Now I understand why. General Information about Snowkiting in New Zealand New Zealand consists of two main islands lying between 34 and 46 degrees south latitude. Mountains on the north island are volcanic cones rising to 9,176 feet (2797 m) while the southern alps are formed by the collision of the Pacific and Australian techtonic plates and forms a range which rises to 12,316 feet (3754 m). Conditions New Zealand’s weather is an interplay between some key influences. Understanding the weather will vastly improve your chances of scoring the best snowkiting conditions on the day and will prove invaluable in striking up a conversation with locals. The two hottest topics of conversation on any day are the weather and rugby. — continued 30 www.driftsnowkitemag.com Hugh Pinfold and Matt Taggart from Ozone at Centennial Hut, perched above a sea of ice and snow with the Tasman Sea in the distance.

  • Dynamic Response of Tall Structures
    DYNAMIC RESPONSE OF TALL STRUCTURES TO WIND EXCITATION A Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL ENGINEERING BUILDING SCIENCE by Massoud Sohirad, Dip..Struct..Eng., M.Sc.(Dundee) JUNE 1983 Ca rn ABSTRACT A system of measuring instantaneous localised wind characteristic profiles at three different heights above ground level was devised. The system made use of kites to support the wind mointoring instruments at the required levels and the transfer of data to ground by telemetery. A 20 storey building was instrumented with displacement and acceleration transducers in order to determine its dynamic characteristics and to examine its dynamic response to wind excitation. A reference on the local wind speed and direction profiles was established by means of, a station at the top of the building. Through the utilisation of an amplitude modulation/demodulation procedure extra recording channels were made available over and above those provided on the basic instrument taperecorder. The dynamic characteristics of the Ibui1din] were established experinientally, and the results were compared with values computed by analytical methods. The dynamic behaviour of the structure under wind excitation was studied and the measured response was compared with predictions based on two methods. The first method took into account the frequency dependence of a component of drag, and the second assumed the drag to be constant. The relationship of the magnitude of the response to human perception levels was considered. An equivalent static drag coefficient was 4 deduce]for the dynamic response at the fundamental frequency in a particular wind velocity.
