DrLightWind is right, I don't think any kite can relaunch in 3 to 4 knots in the water except if you are in knee deep water and your kite is standing on its trailing edge ready to HOT LAUNCH it. This is how I was able to relaunch the INFINITIY V3 prototype that day in less then 5 knots.Poster: DrLightWind
The other flaw if it is flaw when you say "water relaunch in almost now wind (3-4 knots)"
Personally I've been flying my 21 Speed3 almost 2 years and I know I can't relaunch in that.
But since you're talking about medium aspect inflatable lightwind kite,
I test flown the 17m Strutless Cloud recently and I was needed at least 5 - 6 knots for relaunch.
Is it my limited experience with that lightest inflatable,
or would tell us how and which kite would relaunch in 3 - 4 knots because enquiring mind wants to know
Cheers, DrLW
Hello Paoloe or should I call you Mr.PVITfrumBYRAM? I wish I knew who I am talking to. You said on your post above that you like my kites but don't like the approach as much!!! What do you mean by that?Poster: PVITfrumBYRAM
....Personally I like your kites, I just don't like the approach as much. That's great you are getting people stoked at how well the kite can fly in such light conditions, but the reality is it was more than 2-4 knots. Maybe it was that light during a lull on the water and that's why you dropped the kite in the water, but there was a steady breeze.
As for the gentleman with the 21 meter foil, he was inexperienced and could barely fly that kite in 8-10 mph on a different day.

With all due respect UKSurf but I think this is your Chinese translation of what I am saying.Poster:UKSurf

Once again, no need to be SO formal. Please call me ""Mr Pumpy".Dimitri M wrote:P.S. Pump me up, I am still waiting for your email so I can sent you the INFINITY for you to test so you can stop all this BS. What are you so afraid of!!!! Maybe the TRUTH that the kite will perform the way most of people have seen it perform. So please email me so you can test the kite and see it for yourself because this post has become to ridiculous.
