Depend on your weight but quite possible on the water. The reason is that this kite sit much more forward in the wind windows than the Infinity for example so you can handle more power. I was snowkiting in a competition last week-end with the Racer 17m and even if I was on 216cm DH racing skis I had no problem at all in 16 knots so my guess is 18-20 knots on the water should be quite fun. This kite jump very well and the hangtime is great. I am at 192lbs.

Cant see how it helps selling the kite


Here we go again about no numerical on wingtips
We all know what they say...it's not the size it is the motion

But in all fairness and respect to customers it would be a nice gesture on your part Dimitri to give in and put a size on ALL THE KITES YOU SELL :thumb:

Maybe print it really small inside the centers of the Infinity figure 8 pattern. Really super small, so if it matters a lot to you, then you can get on your hands and knees and crawl up to the kite and read the size, so you can be happy. :bravo:

It doesn't bother me ;)

I thought D's point in not printing the kite was to get those size-weenies who "won't fly anything bigger than a 12 brah" to give it a shot... just pointing out that it's had the opposite effect here :o

Dear Mr. Dimitri
Next time you bring your work home and have dinner with your lovely wife
Discuss this idea with her since your Infinity is the best game in town
That kite is the Super Bowl of LW kites
Since you want to retain your uniqueness and a sense of mystery
Go for Roman Numericals on your pride and joy kite
You will disclose the size without really printing any numbers
INFINITY VII XVI :thumb:

That was my point to, but as usual Dimitri jumped the opportunity to answer a question I never made with a bunch of propaganda.
And seriously, how many kiters are so retarded that they cant tell by just looking that the kite is WAY bigger than 12m :-?

Pfff this thing again.....

@mcabe yep most kiters see its bigger then a 12m. But will not be sure if its bigger then 14m.. or maybe even 16m.. or maybe even 18m.. And i do think there will be a big group that gets curious and maybe they will test a kite they normally wouldnt go for.

Ah well.. its a lightwind kite.. so probably most kiters wont be retarded enough to launch the kite in high winds. Will test the V2 very soon cant wait.
