Thinking on how I can increase my water time.
I live 2+ hours from the coast, which is where I kite.
There are a number of lakes locally though but I don't generally bother because the winds are lighter and tend to be very gusty (say 5-17mph).
Launches are also less friendly.
My big kite is an AR5 15.5 and I ride wakes.
Would a big foil like a Warrior 12.5 make the lake more doable (I have no experience with foils)? Would the Warrior be better than my AR5 for those conditions? How would the Warrior compare to say a 2002 Toro or Rhino? Bigger board probably be required as well?
Maybe it's more trouble and cost than driving for better conditions ...
