I've found steering on the clouds to be responsive and direct. If you had it trimmed right (i.e. all the lines the same length) and still had issues with steering, I'd suspect that it wasn't pumped hard enough. The clouds like to be pumped really hard.Bushflyr wrote:No, it was trimmed right, the odd feeling came from the "bump" in the steering pressure when the canopy twisted. Instead of being a linear increase there was a distinct bump when the canopy twisted from a left cant to a right or vice versa. And, seriously, no one can really make the claim that they're fast turning.
A Cloud is not a race kite or big boosting kite.sabraxas wrote:What about real upwind performance of the Clouds in light wind?
I mean, riding traditional twintip kiteboards, or flydoors. The upwind performace of the clouds compared to higher AR struted kites or foil kites.
Everybody talks about the clouds outperforms in waves and hydrofoiling, ok.
What about Formula race? i havent seen one Cloud in Formula Race.
