first you need to generate a polar diagram for your particular craft then you need to take it out in all kinds of different wind speeds and directions this might take a while. There are apps which are specifically made for this so you don't have to plot it out with paper and pencil just turn on the ...

having a fusible link is good. just my opinion. I have seen entire cars or trucks lifted and thrown, a double picnic table lifted and thrown. When a kite loops and is tethered you will see 1 ton maybe 2 tons of force generated. Something is going to break. Having the sand give way at less than maxim...

Board size and style is very personal though. There's no real wrong answer

Haha thanks for promoting the podcast, that's the kind of support we really love cheers.

We have 1 hour interview with Ralf in the books, its worth a listen and then a positive shout out.

thanks for not getting angry. I'm sure I'll listen to the interview. I'm definitely curious.

"this thing just goes. It was mad. I felt as though if I didn't want any power I didn't have to. If I sheeted in oh my god. I had as much power as I wanted. I have never had this feeling. I thought I might hit the ceiling of the earth. I was worried about hitting my head on the troposphere. I had a ...

Ralf didn't design the Harlem force that was designed by the team there. So why on earth is he hinting that this new kite is better than something an entire factory can do? Is he at odds with the very company that he runs? There's got to be more to this story than meets the eye. If he can't just bri...

I saw 2 prototypes, and it sounds like the one that Collin tested was already fine-tuned.. also, this podcast appears to be done to build hype around a not so distant launch. thanks. I'll look for it next year. Meanwhile I really want to demo one of those harlem force kites. I should ask mac kite a...

Well, he mentioned who the designer is.

He has his own production, so it could be an OEM product. So it won’t need a name. This will be given later by whoever buys it!

What year is this going to happen? Nobody knows.

You know if you aren't going to mention any of the details of the kite, not the brand, not the name, not the time frame, not even who will sell it, no photos, no video, nothing, well you don't really need to demo it in the first place.

Do not recommend listening to this podcast.

^^ i don't know the answer but there are seals that work in pure petrol. Also I do not know the specifications of the materials used in the GRI pump. Strange that nobody seems to be able to quote an OEM's design office for a particular pump. The seals that work on petroleum based are silicone seals...
