Nowadays a nice relaxed, yet with a powered bigger kite gets me going.
Those 30+ just became stress and hoping not to get injured.
Happy to have that left behind me without serious injuries.
But great if others enjoy it! Have fun
powered big kite can be worse tho!.
I've had 3 sessions this week.
10m 18-22 knots
6m 20-38 knots
15m 16-20 knots
The most fun for me was 20-38 knot on the 6.. wristling with the wind gods,,, man that was a punchy powerfull session.
But I got most hammered on the 16-20 knot session man handling the speed 3 through head head plus waves. that was very silly indeed.
ok so the faster the wind the smaller the kite and the faster it can loop uncontrollable. but if your overpowered on any kite its still more dangerous being properly powered on the correct kite regardless of wind speed.
