just wanted to share my snowkite video.
i got my twister 7.7 for 130 euro - for that price its an amazingly good lightwind kite. wind was around 4-6 knots. i was riding all the time in an
empty spot all for myself
only other rider joined was on a ozone manta2 - but was constantly relaunching and sorting the kite out. just not enough wind for a depower foil.
fixed bridle kites always win in the lowest of winds.
Nice jealous of your spot and the snow Feyd - 21-1-2011 at 07:02 PM
Damn fixed bridles. Damn power houses!herc - 22-1-2011 at 08:28 AM
@feyd: at least its a peter lynn bridled kite ;-)
indeed thats raw power in the lightest of winds what the twister delivers. unbelievable. but one gets problems of course if the wind is gusty - no
depower.. i wonder what a powerfull machine a peter lynn vapor 11.2 sqm will be ?
but usually i find that the light winds are not very gusty. especially thos thermal sea winds are ultra smooth..
@kami: its a really nice spot.. sadly only once a year for me during winter holidays. i wish we would have snow here in the flatlands.. just stupid
