yup, the rings are oh shit lines - you can back stall the kite with them. Yes you can stake them. The change in the bridle geometry in the p3 meant that the kite did not sit parked on trailing edge, like the psycho 1's ,when leashed. I have an 8, 10 and 13 in the loft if you are interested - all in ...

There is ZERO riders on old foils at my local.
