We had a local guy buy a 2013 NRG 16m recently, and when we were all having fun riding his kite couldn't stay in the air or get him going.

There is way more to it than commission, which there reall...

This was on a 17 Flite in less than 20mph.

Just threw together a quick video of our vacation to the OBX last week. We were having so much fun we forgot to video most of it. Had a blast though. If your looking for a fun kiting trip you should look out for this next year.
