Yea no foils because of the gusty winds, I have to have inflatables...how does decreasing the line length do anything, that wouldn't help with lulls.

They aren't long lulls just quick ones....I've just noticed some kites in those quick lulls will stay in the air while others will drop out of the sky real quick....I'm just trying to figure out the kites that can handle lower winds without nosediving in these quick lulls when already at lowerwind s...

I've been in this sport for over a year now and haven't been able ride many kites....basically I'm looking for a high wind kite 9m or smaller that has low wind stability and can stay up in the air in 7 knots with lulls to 4-5 knots occasionally. I'm thinking the new delta designed kites might be abl...

Thanks for the info Dimitri....Yea the Lithium is pretty quick since it is only a 13m, but it's interesting about the power comparison....Would you have a link to the comparison results? Also, I don't think being maxed out at 16 knots is terrible because that's about a 1-2 knot better highend than t...

Thanks for the quick response...It's cool to actually get a real honest response like that because other manufactures tend to be mushy with the details.

http://inhabitat.com/wind-powered-car-completes-an-epic-5000km-journey-across-australia/ Thought this was interesting story about a car completely run by various wind powered tools including an actual kite. QUIZ!!! What's the kite they are using? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6bU43RCIVw http://ww...

Nooo that was awesome...there was a couple times there I thought they were going to die.....they are showing the hard core attidude of kiters.

Thanks everyone for the input, got busy with school which is why I'm replying now. But I tried the heat gun thing and that was impossible and the bumps wouldn't even budge, plus I didn't want to prolong the heat and damage the board.......as to the epoxy I don't even want to try that cause I think i...
