If it's home made... even though it's not an NPW, can I use it for the Unofficial Rag Flapper Race?SecondWind - 13-11-2007 at 03:20 PM
AJ - is that you on the Dirtsurfer? On a hard beach I bet you could get moving pretty good in 5 mph of wind with that big ol' NPWbbrex - 13-11-2007 at 04:39 PM
I'm ready tooooo, I was a bit disappointed we didn't get things together last year for the rag flapin races. What are the max length of lines 12 ft,
15ft, 20ft? I made up some 12ft sets for last year hoping to to do some racing. Susan and I have put a lot of miles and hours on our rags this year in
preperation for the races.
I can hardly wait!!

That was Dave Petty with a 25m NPW. He was the only one moving that day...

it was 32m and it was a 2.1 mph avg wind........ajkitemaker4 - 13-11-2007 at 06:55 PM
Hey Brad
Mine short line set is 10 ft. so I would say go with your shortest.

No it wasn't a 32m. It was a 35m... yeah, that's it! And it was 3.0 mph average wind speed (8.3mph peak earlier) and 2.1mph at the
very instant that the photo was taken...
Dave Petty who?

what's a "rag flapper"?Taper123 - 14-11-2007 at 03:15 PM
Rag Flappers are just an affectionate name for NPW (Nasa Para Wing) kites.
