Ik heb de Link in zeer vlagerige wind geprobeerd. Wat mij op valt is:

De kite is lekker snel (niet te snel) en vangt de vlagen goed op.

Waar ik met name op heb gelet, is dat de kite, wanneer je het wilt, voor in het windvenster vliegt.

Ik heb gemerkt dat de Fuels in een vlaag moeilijk in het voor windvenster te krijgen zijn.

Het was een kwestie van iets de bar van je af en je kon de vlaag gebruiken om zeer hoog aan de wind te varen. Uitgehaakt zal een makkie zijn. je hoeft niet bang te zijn dat de kite te hard zal gaan trekken. Dan trek je gewoon aan de depowerlijn. Die zit nu onder de bar.

Robin.
