17m any good for scudding, he asks... 
Yes. They jump just fine too  take it easy out there - if you're asking questions
like that, you should get a few pointers before letting rip!
Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

They made a couple different versions of the blacktip but yeah, they were all C-kites. The first model was a real dog, hindenberged really easy.
