Must be a glitch in the matrix. I don't see any link or anything above?

Scratch that,,, it showed up in the preview below:puzzled:

Very nice. Definitely requires a bit of extra effort on setup, launch and landing:thumbup::thumbup:

Thanks guys, glad you liked it. I've been playing around with S-Arc stacks for a few years. I'll post below a couple photos:
- Surfboard 1120 + 840
- TwinTip 1120 + 840 + 630
- TwinTip 840 + 840 + 630 + 630
- Hydrofoil 1120 +840
Needed smaller ones to stack more and I found a couple this year so the video is:
- TwinTip 630+630+630+460+460
Lines are 15m and 3m extensions.
Windrange of 10-12mph for a 200 rider, it went up to 15+mph and I had to have a hold down to land.
If there are any retired S-Arcs or other Arc kites let me know. I've got a few more crazy ideas...
