This Video speaks for itself.
Being the last rider out riding UPWIND as the wind die while racing with the passing sun,
busting air off on a butter flat water is MAGICAL & not aimless! 15m Speed2=PRICELESS

  • Hey dr lightwind, i just got a 17m Speed , standard fabric.

    with a large board will i be able to go upwind in 8 knots? im 175 lbs

  • @submelon8, Yes in those days of that size Speed, many people could ride in 8 knots with that weight.

    Myself I never had that size to try, but I know a flyer in Japan who is heavier than you and he is holding ground

    in 8 - 10 knots. In lower humidity air and large enough board shoudn't be a problem a all.

    Good luck with it.

  • im about to buy a kite for low wind, i cant decide between 15 or 19 due to agility. anyone care to comment please?

    (SPEED3 Deluxe.)

    wind speeds are like averaging 6 maybe 7 in my area. I'm 75 kg.

    and is a spleene 139 or flyradical 139 enough, or must i get a door? i'd obviously want to learn tricking thus am not too enthusiastic on a door somehow.

    o btw im a complete noob, appreciate the advise..

  • If the wind is so light and your weight is 75 kg,

    than there is a call for the 19m Speed3 DLX light version.

  • Dr.Lightwind, what kind and size board are you riding in this video?

    Flysurfer is great, I have a Speed 2 19

  • The board is a Semi Directional DC custom from Dereck. 4 fins at the tail and 2 small at font. 180 X 46 X 6 Lbs (2.7 KG)

    A little bit an over-kill, but its made only to cover the 5 to 10 knots range.

see all
