Offshore wind with the accompanying ‘bumps’ always makes flying more… interesting, but anyway… Here’s a tiny feel-good update from yesterday’s four kites in the air.

A lot of tweaking with the bridle before it flew well enough in the slightly turbulent wind. Definitely old school, floaty, oversteering, and not very trick-friendly in … interesting wind conditions.

I had forgotten how trick-friendly this one can be! The venting ‘smoothed out’ the turbulence. Backspins like a dream, floaty 540s, and I even managed something that resembled a comète.
Fun!

Ghost - terningkast 4
Ghost – 4 of 6

I know very well that this kite can do every trick in the book. I can do quite a few of them too, but the turbulent wind took away some of that ultimate feeling. But wow, it delivers!

T2 Comp Evo Zero ( ca 1998) by Airdynamics

Precision kite deluxe … and it deserves to be flown on much longer lines than tonight’s 25 meters. Rock-solid lines, perfect tip stabs, and loooooong side slides. Cool!
