Frame powerkites for kiteboarding?
I've recently flown a HUGE frame powerkite called "The Arbitrator." I've been thinking about rigging it for 4-lines, perhaps stacking 2 or 3 of them, and trying it out as a traction kite or a kite to use with my ATB (All Terrain Board).
Has anyone tried this? |
I think Flash Austin used stacks of delta kites in Florida in the early 1990's, others did in the 1980's for kitesurfing. These days it would be novel to try. Reminds me of using old ram air foils without intake valves. Do your best to keep the kite out of the water or if it hits reverse launch in seconds, or likely there it will stay. Still, the novelty was amusing.
