New F-Arc video. 12m in 10-12mph winds.
Just some cruisin and one jump but I think it illustrates just how nice that old kite flies.

Chris, "better" is a relative term.
Seriously man the F-Arc possesses a lot of flight qualities that really suit my tastes.:wee: I love flying these things.:wee:
I'm sorry the video footage doesn't do it justice but there wasn't that much wind when I shot those bits. 15mph would have been sweet.
Awesome kite Mr. Brent. 12yrs old and till kickin' A$$~!
I thank you.
I'm a lucky SOB to be able to fly (IMO) the best early model Arc and the best new Arcs. |
