Woud Luigi Jump it?You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
millertime24 8 #3 February 19, 2010 it sias 6'... i doubt anyone could land this thing. Also, I dont jump in winds much higher than 15mph, but the kite is rated to 25 so we'll see.Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YOU may not jump in winds above 15 but remember that the dz needs to shut down before it is acceptable to be flying that thing anywhere near the landing area. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cocheese 0 #5 February 19, 2010 I have a 20 sq.ft. kite from Big Air Sportz. That thing will kick your ass if you break a sweat flying it. The next day i'm usually regretting it. I don't know how people kite surf. I would die. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davelepka 4 #6 February 19, 2010 QuoteIf the wind is too strong for a parachuting canopy what makes you think it will be ok for a parastyle kite I have a kite I like to fly on wind holds. It's 103 sq feet, and it's made by PD. They call it a 'Velocity'. Kiting your canopy is only fun when it's windy. Handle it properly, or get dragged across the landing area.
