My 2-3 years landsailing with the skatewing and my windsurfing experience did not seem to help me sail in this "wolf in sheep's clothing" bad location. I've tried to sail for 3 weeks now. The kitewing makes me feel like I've never sailed before, but am I missing a fundamental concept? Yes! With the wind at yor back, object in FRONT(leeward) of you CAN affect the wind behind you. Think about how water sprayed on a wall bounces back. Wind bounces back and then you have wind on both sides. Also it's best to learn on inline skates(assuming you are advanced skater) or something you are advanced with already. LEarning Kiteing and Dirtsurfer is not the best idea.

  • Is that (LL cooljay) ? :P

  • @damanisdakila: well... it might just be me, but couldn`t he have meant "restart" and he just was not sure about the ending of the word?

    @visualfxpro: well, anyways, reminds me of my first tries with my rage 55+ i received 2 weeks ago, hehe, simply not enough wind and holding sail little bit at wrong angle, not sooo easy to figure out.

    Today i was out in 8-15 knots, gusty winds and while with the mountainboard on asphalt it was a smooth experience, on about 4-5inches of grass i did not move!

  • Sorry - you've obviously NO idea what you're doing!

  • @wadsco lol restard, you mean retard thats really funny dude you misspelled the easiest word
