The aerodynamics of relaunching.

I need some help getting an old c-kite flown on a custom bridle to re-launch. Yes, crazy, I know. I got the spec from Slinghot for the 2015/2016 fuel 9m bridle, and used this to determine where to add my custom bridle connection points to a 2005/2005 fuel 9m. Originally I added about 10-15cm to cord...

finding a pin-hole in main bladder

simple...

sausage section the bladder, and press your ear on it, listen for it.
No matter how small it is, you will hear it.

It sure beats pools, bath tubes and water.

I think he has good intentions, as he was very keen for me to see the DVD before I made a payment. Foiling is not for everyone or every location. I still want one,be I'll try it fi...
