Re: Kite scooter could outpace raceboards: Prototype video

After I had tried the rig on a 160l-windsurf-board first and even that felt quite shaky, I build this prototype quite big. This would be about the right size to carry a passenger or for an absolute beginner, I suppose, if I am to build another one it most probably is going to be quite a bit smaller, though I would like it to remain a floater.FrederikS wrote:I like the idea of a non heeling design definitely the holy grail of speed sailing. The foils at the front seem dangerous even with a rubber trailing edge.
The hull seems a bit big to me, is that out of a flotation concern for when/if the wind or kite drops?
Looks like it is good fun on the water
