Awsome light wind kite

Postby slingshotucf » Sun Dec 18, 2005 3:55 am

I just got in some SwitchBlade 16's and they're awsome for light wind. I was using the Crossbow 16 b4 but now after riding the Switchblade 16, I have a new favorite for the light wind. There's no need for Cabrinha to make a bigger Bow kite than the 16. The kite has some great hang time for light wind. It's like launching up a parachute once you leave the water. Low bar pressure and great range and relaunch like the rest of Cabrinha's kites.

Did you compare same size bows vs C shapes for light winds ?
