I've owned and flown lots of big kites in the last seven or eight years.. 25M, 20.5M, 19M, 17.5M, two 17M's, 16M, 14M, and two 13M's.
Any part of a lightwind discussion I choose to be part of...I have experience to draw upon, as many here do...just the same as you do.

There comes a time when kitesurfing is no longer an option... Too hot to golf, too steamy to cycle... Get an exocet longboard with a 10 or 12 m sail and tear the lake apart in 3 knots... No planing, just sweet navigation... Nothing beats 250 liters in those conditions...

This is absolutely true. I try to atone for my sins where I can.
I bring my little Pitbull buddies to visit at three old folks hospice centers and we go to see stroke patients, and to visit/work with mentally/physically challenged children at a two different schools.
Loki and I are part of something called "The Pit Crew" which is a group of 12 Pitbull dogs who are trained and certified to do therapy work

Just try the EPICKITES and you will see for yourself.

I have been getting a lot of emails about these demos. So here are some information about the FLORIDA EPIC DEMOS which will be starting on December 10th.
So come and join us at The Kite Surf Place at 7 pm for food and a good time.
This is the address where the Party is going to be:
THE KITE SURF PLACE
2709 East Atlantic Blvd.
Pompano Beach FL.
Tel#: 954-785-7788
The first demos will start the next day December 11th in CoCo Beach. Will be on the beach as early as I can to make sure we have less then 5 knots to test the INFINITY v3 prototype in the air. So come on and see what the INFINITY v3 prototype is all about.
P.S. But once again dates and locations are subject to change due to the wind conditions.

My god, what are we talking about here! Hoping for less than 5 knots!
Maybe this lightwind discussion has gone too far!

This demo sounds great. Since I can't be there I am really looking forward to the feedback from the testers - especially the doubters.
I hope it's not too windy.
