Toby,
my email is
matthew.payne@jcu.edu.au
I need the email address as i wrote Don a question in kiteboarding.be''s interview with him and he said he has designed a 24 and 30 m X2. I want to 1) see if he will make the kite for me, and 2)get a price off him on the kite. The reason i want a kite so big is that i live in Townsville, Australia, and here the wind is either ~8-10 knots or 18-25 knots. I have an airush LIFT 12.2, which i use up to ~28 knots and as i only like riding small wakes i need a big kite for the lower range (say 6-16 knots). I was going to get a 22.5 north but this kite is so slow and isn't really high performance. Don told me that the X2 20 turns as fast as an 11.5 ARX so i an hoping that the 24 or 30 m models are going to be pretty quick too.
Cheers,
Matt
