Metteo’s post proves my point about different opinions , if
Moylemuncher or any other kiter that has ridden the two types of kites
Post a reply, they would be different too, there’s
no such thing as the, Best kite! There’s a few thing Metteo said,” I “
disgree with and take note I mean, I(Shuman) is that a C Kite jumps higher than the Bow, I’ve been getting crazy airs with the bow I’ve never gotten with the C, as far
as tricks, it’s all about, hang time with most of kite boarding tricks,
especially the handle pass, the more time you have in the air the easier
and better the trick will look, now you really don’t expect to be doing any major
kite loops with a 16m Bow/27m lines not even a 16 C/27m lines can do major loops, but a few things have to be in place for really powered kite loops, a small high Aspect kite and short lines, 27m lines are not the preferred choice of the pros to be doing kite loops
but! again these are things
that can be debated on. That self launching with the Bow is something
that we can not debate on cause only Moyle has tried it, I would like for us
to go to club med and try different ways of trying to
self launch that thing. Then we can debate on this.
Kiting in light wind is like watching a plant grow,
no power, no jumps, no danger,no power what’s the since of even getting wet
a 16m C or bow is the biggest I would go. This season is starting to look
like it’s going to suck , but I tell ya this,15-20 knots my 9-5 will be in the
water I’ll just suffer the punishment when I go to work the next day. Hey!
Balloon boy! Ya know I wants to be trying those Halos, I really want to
See how different Bow kites fly and respond, wouldn’t it be funny, you
getting rid of all your C kites and getting a quiver of Halo’s.
