Just some cruisin and one jump but I think it illustrates just how nice that old kite flies.
:wee:

Hats off to Chris Brent's design, now 12 years old !
:thumbup::thumbup: to Feyd for making it look so easy and fun....
It makes me feel to get my F-1200 and go out kiting, #@%$#!, forgot snow is gone for a month now, maybe go landboarding, too :crazy:
I need to get my fix........
Dammit, I have to wait another year now, :sniff: :(

Just when a guy is trying to get over this past winter you post this video.
"Those kind of thoughts can be so cruel, so cruel"

Sorry, what can I say? We had a decent winter over here. Short but not terrible!:smilegrin:

Chris, "better" is a relative term.

Seriously man the F-Arc possesses a lot of flight qualities that really suit my tastes.:wee: I love flying these things.:wee:

I'm sorry the video footage doesn't do it justice but there wasn't that much wind when I shot those bits.:rolleyes: 15mph would have been sweet.

Awesome kite Mr. Brent. 12yrs old and till kickin' A$$~!

I thank you.

I'm a lucky SOB to be able to fly (IMO) the best early model Arc and the best new Arcs.
