Gotta agree with Tom. That is a hybrid kite, not a straight C kite.

Because it has a bridle system that travels along the LE.

A traditional old school C kite does not have bridles, just pigtails that attach directly to/from the wingtips.

There are 2 product descriptions for the Yarga declaring it a C kite that I linked to. Then we have Simon on the Best forum calling it a C kite in several places (I linked to one). It has a new bar that is made to be C kite specific, and lastly, I see zero bridles and squared off wing tips in the pic.
What gives guys? Is reading comprehension in Florida really that bad these days?

To clarify.. new kite is C kite. Old kite had bridles. LMAO.

Thanks Danny. I stand corrected. I was looking at that link to Best's website that Tom put out there earlier. I don't remember even seeing an '07 Yarga at the beach ever. C kite it is...
