I have one yet to fly it ! Thank you for the pointers ! I’m Sure I will have to watch it again before we set sail on vacation lol love flying them with the kids !
Great vid I have the Peter Lynn foil kites I have then from 1.2 mtr up to 2.6mtr and I can tell you one thing it’s a dam good ride on the 2.6 so much fun and power also I have a lot of the prism sport kites I absolutely love the quantum you should have a go with one of them 👍
Took my small foil kite out on holiday last week. Not sure if the wind was too variable had trouble with the flying on occasion with it spinning and folding in on itself. Glad I watched this video though it gave me some good pointers and I did manage to do a couple of solo launches.
Yes, consistent wind is a must. I usually only fly mine at the beach for that reason. I have flown inland only a handful of times with very mixed results. Shifting, inconsistent wind.
@@mericanhoney yeah I was at the beach with what felt like a good onshore breeze at the top of the cliff but as you got down to beach level it seemed less strong. Whether it was to do with the cliff face deflecting the flow of wind up higher. It wasn’t too bad if I got the kite above that level. However I guess my inexperience was the problem I figured 😊. Need to do it more ad it was enjoyable
I've been flying the 1.9m version for 14 years. The kite is folded and pre rigged with the lines and handles neatly figure eighted around a plastic paddle. Setup is stupid simple
@@SeaWasp I mean really after flying, and how to store. Unpacking for first time was so easy, that I didn’t actually pay close attention. I don’t remember how it unpacked (was windy day, and lots going on), and there’s no instructions on how to repack the strings. Tried it once and failed miserably w a mess of tangles.

You will love it!
You make it look easy…
Now teach your family, it would be cool to see more in the air!
I am teaching the boys, but when flying with me they stand right in front of my chest mounted camera. The footage could have been better

kite fighting sounds really interesting. will have to check it out. thanks
Need to add to the video the actual unpacking of the kite strings, as well as proper storage for us kite novices.
