Agree, plus no chance of a blown bladder or ripped canopy. I have a Speed 4 12m and Chrono 18m for travel. Depending on where you are going you could probably get away with 1 kite as the range is about 15+ knots on the foils. Easy to self launch and land too. I like my inflatos too just don't want all the luggage when travelling.Aummm wrote:I would rather invest in foil kites 2 quiver, in stead of 3 or 4 strutless to cover the same range, which will give youPogibro wrote:I am thinking about putting together a new quiver of kites for travel.

the benefit of smaller pack down, better range, bigger boost and hang time and without the need of a pump
Clouds have pretty good range, we really enjoyed the 12m. The new C2 kites have pretty good range to them.Pogibro wrote:I am thinking about putting together a new quiver of kites for travel.

The strutless kites are awesome...also for travel. Actually the strutless I have tried are great kites as they are (Naish Trip and BRM Cloud). That they pack up small is just a bonus its a good bonus but all the same.Pogibro wrote:I am thinking about putting together a new quiver of kites for travel.

Today I found something new about my Cloud that I REALLY loved. I have tried packing kites in SPACE BAGS in the past but gave up because I was afraid that pulleys could damage the fabrics. The thing is, the C2 briddles has NO METAL OU SOLID PARTS. Now I can use space bags again. Extra careful people like me may remove the valves before packing. See the results:Pogibro wrote:I am thinking about putting together a new quiver of kites for travel. Am intrigued with the small pack down size of the new strutless kites.
