Photos of Yakuza, Method, Flow

No wind and was curious. Laid out these three kites just to see. It appears the 2.7m Yakuza is about 11.5' long. 2.3m Method in the middle, and a 2m Flow on top for comparison.

In flight the Method really feels like a stretched out version of the Flow. Faster than the Flow, yet easier to fly then the Yakuza. The Yak is bonkers fast. Mind boggling.

It's a shame though about the lack of low end grunt in the Method/Yak. Putting around and there is just nothing. Get them moving and it's like lighting off a rocket. All or nothing it seems. It's like it won't go, it won't go, then full power.

They really need room to run. I haven't found them work so well trying to zoom around a smaller area involving turning around often.
