This eye chart shows how a kiter with low myopia ( -1.00D) sees in the distance

So what i am saying is that with their "impaired uncorrected" vision.....(they only see good up close)
...they cannot tell how much the wind is "really"....blowing...especially in below 8kn of wind
Just take a look a the chart enclosed...see how blurred it is at only 1.0D of myopia
I am convinced that at "22 meters" and beyond.........it's all a big blurrrrrrrrrrr
.... ... Supafocus is a must for a kiter and safer for all the other kiters of the water................
But ultimately my topic remains about impaired vision and impaired LW speed estimates
