That's right. Not too much snow on the ice. The npw worked great since you can easily 'depower' (collapse) the kite if it is pulling too much

The grass goes dormant and the top turns brown for the winter. We did have some cold weather this year with the ground freezing. Things are starting
to green up already down here. Winter is almost over for us. It is going to get to almost 70 degrees or maybe over by the weekend.

Hey Herc, for what it's worth, I was able to throw my NPW9 7M (made by the goddess) on a kitchen scale, and it weighed 450 grams.

I get the feeling that an even bigger wing would score even better!? Why doesn't everyone fly these? Big Kid, can you throw the 11M on a scale when
you get it?

The grandsons had no school for the day and after we had ice cream for breakfast we went to the park to play it was a last minute thought. Blaine's
board was in the truck but forgot his helmet and so no boarding 
Should have some video after NABX.
