Hey Toby

[Don Lester]

Hey Toby, I just watched the movie "Volare", great jumps and hang time. What kind of wind strength were you in and what size kite were you using. Thanks........... Don

[Toby]

Hi Don,

thx!

I used the Deluxe Speed3 19 and 15 on the Cauipe lagoon where you see many kites as well. The longest hangtime is with the 19. Wind 15-20 knots.

On the other part in the river mouth at Ilha do Guajiru where you also the a fisher boat I used the 15 and 12 Speed3. Wind 20-25 knots.

Hey Toby,

Great movie, I really enjoyed watching it. Huray for old-skool!

PS: Get a hair cut... match the length with the places where it will probably never come back again

[Toby]

I used a Rebel 2010 16.0 and a Flyboard Radical S (128) with 92 kg.

Is he going to land this one? You've got to ask for the sequence if you want to know...

Oh my GOD, no wonder your getting such long hang time. Is there something special about those kites that allows you to use such large size in that amount of wind ? I've never tried ram air style kites......... Maybe I should !

the kites do have an impressive depower due to the triple depower system on the speed 3 (also available on the psycho4). This means when you push the bar away the kite actually beomes more C shape so projected area is alot lower (around 15%-18% lower). check out http://www.flysurfer.com

any video from the PKRA event of toby or the board off 'comp'

Don: the more powered you can go out, the longer you will fly.
Therefore a kite with a good depower is needed.
And also the technical skills to handle it (I am riding very powered since 2000, when I started already with 2 line kites = 100% power)
