Yes you can, and if you want to make it even safer, i have an extra rope cleat that can be mounted on your bar setup so you can pull a few inches in and lock it off to give even better range...... similar to the flexi axis 5line

IDK, Jayson knows these kites better than me. Thing is, he can also hold down kites in a lot more wind than most.

Let's just put one of you stud muffins out on this kite come the next hurricane, get a windmeter and a video camera, and document our findings!!

Seriously though, Jay really knows how to edge a board on a C kite at it's top range.
To make it short and sweet, I would put the top end of the 7m Fuel at about the same as a 9m Waroo. I remember riding that kite in 35 and flat water, not impossible at all. BUT, if I were in chop or waves... no way. With the C's it's all about forcing the kite to the edge of the window and keeping it their at it's top end with a hard edge, not sheeting out.

Thanks Scott. I just remember watching you guys ride in 35-45 while the sand biting my ankles some months back at Treasure... at leaast this way I can get out on the water...

my recommendation...

if this is your first time on a Ckite in high wind (ie 7m fuel in 35+) dont do it in waves, your gonna get seriously worked and possibly hurt.... there is no depower on a 7m Ckite in 40... its all about edging, guts, and the lack of "reason" brain cells......hey, maybe i should buy it

Actually Inferno, I was surprised you didn't. You want a kiteloop kite and this is pretty much it... just ask Ruben

Anyway, woodson may have thought this came with the bar... still waiting on a reply so I think it may still be available unless he says otherwise.

I was under the impression it came with bars and skimpy clad women...

For the sake of a the community and having no experience with C kites. probably in everyone's best interest if I refrained.

Thanks to everyone who PM'd stating that this wasn't the kite for me!

Thanks for the offer bud!
