Exactly on the point! That is how I do it with the smallest kite I can get away with!

Nice video! Why not ride an 8M or a 9M with 10-12 knots?

I tried to used the smallest kite i can get away with. I also thought it might come up a bit, first time at this place SPI - 8 or 9 would have been good choice too - A few other tube kites out were 10+M - For me the perfect size kite would be no kite at all. These smaller ones you can kind of whip around if you need them to get out of the way. Thanks for the comment!
