Typically vector format means something like a Corel .DXF file or possibly a PostScript file (a vector based file in standard printer language) rather than a BMP (pixel based file).

Vector based means file is structured such that a straight line is recorded with it's start and end points, rather than every pixel on the line as in a pixel based file.

Basically Vector files are easier to scale for printing because they do not pixelate when scaled up or down, regardless of size.

I have actually never been approached at Lassing but that is perhaps because I ride there with people who are more known than myself (I won't name drop). Or it could be because I most of the time engage the conversations in a attempt to meet new riders and most of the time this conversation is how people find out that I have taken lessons and how long I have been riding and so on.

The main concern is I guess awareness. I will only ride the skyway out of the east and this is only because the tide is usually too low for my comfort at lassing, and I have never kited at backside(except for lessons).

So as a group we just have to keep pounding out our concern for safety and riding spots. Eventually everyone should comply because they will get tired of hearing us :)

I meant if launching a 20m in 30 knots you would have been approached and asked what is up :)

Good post. I think "most" instructors and every rider would comply with such a system. It has my support.
