Ok, I missed that factor of 3. But upwind is still way, way overrated. And also relaunching by the way.

They are probably not thinking so complicated. They just want to determine which kite is more fun. Here is the scientific formula: Ask a crowd of observers to scream if they liked the Best performance, then ask them to scream if they liked the FS performance. Measure the sound level...

Best could always bring back the rent-o-crowd. Those guys are good!

After all... back in the day, it was those instant fans that started the whole best@kiteforum/best basher paradigm in the first place. Before them we all found contentment with foil vs. LEI bashing@kiteforum.

Ahhh... I see we've come full circle Grasshopper :jap:. The LEI has transcended itself, rendering all previous LEI incarnations obsolete. Now ONE LEI bears the heavy burden of duelling for the honour of kite supremacy... against a humble foil... :crossfingers:

This battle must be fought way offshore... where, if a kite falls and no one hears >> we are left with the opportunity to contemplate...

Hey! Check out that best ad...

Did you see Armin's proposal Gumball?
It has everything: jumping height, Hangtime, Turningspeedtime, Upwindtime.

And durability, if the airframe of the HF is really stiff I think you can break it by crashing it...
