not much wind and the beach was too soft to landboard so i decided to have a play in the dunes. and for those that asked, a how to on how to stall land an arc.

There's some useful info. Thanks Carl.

Hooj

Two questions.

1. What does the ribbon on the trailing edge do for you?

2. What created the large tread tracks on the beach?

m

the ribbon doesnt do much in flight apart from me being abit differant but when i pack up and leave the spars in then i use it to wrap around the finished roll to stop it from unravelling.

the tread tracks are made by a jcb digger and a dumper truck. dont ask me why but they collect sand all day and dump it at the top of the beach. its probably something to do with construction.

Dune jumping is one of the things I most want to do w/ my arcs, but they don't let anyone on the protected beach dunes in my region ;-(

Very nice, thanks for that
Is there a wind speed limit to doing that?

Static jumping is so much fun on the arcs ... so easy too - in a good wind, all I need to do is send it across, dig my heels in then pop! Dune jumping looks awesome ... pity we got none around here

Carl, when you stall land them that way, that's directly down wind, right?

Another great vid, Carl!
Thanks for the in-depth demo on stall landing!
I don't have a suicide leash, but I'm going to try using the same technique except holding the self-landing handle on the bottom side.

carl get out on that water man!!! what ya waitin for?:dunno:

i do kitesurf. i kitesurf very vey very well. ive kitesurfed for over 2 years i just prefer the landboard.

Once again, "Powerkite Sensei" shows the way for us grasshoppers. Keepem coming CTB!!!:bigok:

That was nice thanks man!

Is that the same for an 04 bar and 07 bar? I think my Phantom 9M has an 04.

AD72 - I think the principles are the same ... I can't remember how far away from the bar the ring for the safety is - might prove to be a bit of a reach ...

Mav - I've done it successfully at the edge of the window, but that was light wind ...

Doesn't matter to me anymore, I sold off all my arcs. But hopefully the info will help someone else.
