2 LINE ?

No QR on the loop?

7m2 for 20kts but you need a 9 for 18? I have to change kites with 2 kt wind changes ?


I suppose you would only SUK in very low winds so would only need 1 kite ?? I think I would rather use a Speed to SUK so I wouldn't have to SUK NO MO' when the wind got decent? :spin:

Flexifoil: 1.7m Sting, 4.9m Blade 3, 9m Blade 2.

Mood: chilled....but ready to SAIL!

speaking from experience, turning a sup and keeping the a kite going is job. hard to turn!

farting around in a straight run is fun and can be quite fast. you still need decent wind.

although the kites look really fun , hauling those SUPs is a complete turn off. make the chicks carry it!

two line c-kites in todays market talk about small niche. about 2 years from now these things may come free with new kite purchase!

cool vid always nice to see the ladies going at it!

yeah I see a 2-line C to be about as useful as a screen door in a submarine (you know, to keep the fish out).

Lol. some funny replies. I thought they worked very hard to make that look fun. As good as those guys are at kiting it still looked like a lot of work for little fun.
The ladies on the other hand, I could watch them for hours.

My buddy scored an old windsurfing board for $150 and it works great as a sup. That might be a used market to tap into for suping on the cheap..
