Default Video: WHY you don't want to screw around with a full sized kite on land


There is no good reason in training for kitesurfing on water to fly a full sized traction kite on land for any longer than it takes to get on the water. If you need to work on control use trainer kites and LEI kites up to 5 m in lighter winds.

Any larger than that it is a bad (read dumb) idea. How many of these rocket scientists have landed kites on bystanders?
