Re: Kite looping in 10-13 knots?
31 degrees, 85-90 kg giel and 13 knots of what? warm wind? Mad if true. Can go upwind with my 12m in 13 knots and do baby jumps but if I edge too much, party is over and I fall on my bum.

Sorry Toby, but it looks like you've got pulled into yet another IG marketing horse sh@te! No honest average size rider can loop an honest 12m in honest 12kn this way.

I won’t jump as high in an 18 in that wind…
That’s why I am posting it, too good to be true.
But, I never tried an Aluula, so I leave it to the guys who did to comment.

ALLELUIA !!!
It's fun now to show up at beach in true wind speed of 10-13kn
I can pump my 12m and know my kiteloops will be high
I dropped a lot a cash
I'm so glad
I can now defy the laws of nature
Defy gravity
Now RISE !!
