Spatially resolved spectroscopy from SDSS-IV MaNGA survey has revealed aclass of quiescent, relatively common early-type galaxies, termed "redgeysers", that possibly host large scale active galactic nuclei driven winds.Given their potential importance in maintaining low level of star formation atlate times, additional evidence confirming that winds are responsible for thered geyser phenomenon is critical. In this work, we present follow-upobservations with the Echellette Spectrograph and Imager (ESI) at the Kecktelescope of two red geysers (z$<$0.1) using multiple long slit positions tosample different regions of each galaxy. Our ESI data with a spectralresolution (R) $\sim$ 8000 improves upon MaNGA's resolution by a factor offour, allowing us to resolve the ionized gas velocity profiles along theputative wind cone with an instrumental resolution of $\rm \sigma =16~km~s^{-1}$. The line profiles of H$\alpha$ and [NII]$\rm \lambda 6584$ showasymmetric shapes that depend systematically on location $-$ extended bluewings on the red-shifted side of the galaxy and red wings on the opposite side.We construct a simple wind model and show that our results are consistent withgeometric projections through an outflowing conical wind oriented at an angletowards the line of sight. An alternative hypothesis that assigns theasymmetric pattern to "beam-smearing" of a rotating, ionized gas disk does apoor job matching the line asymmetry profiles. While our study features justtwo sources, it lends further support to the notion that red geysers are theresult of galaxy-scale winds.
