How long does it take to set up or take down the wing..what kind of winds can you fly in...

[TheSkyDog1]

The 190 Freedom takes about 10 minutes to set up. I got it for the no wind, hot and humid days and it's awesome for that. I have flown it with 10 mph on the ground and 15 up above with no problem. I weigh 178 lbs. I think I could fly it in more wind but thats not what I got it for.

Great video. I enjoyed the song and the video. I want to transition to a powered harness this summer. How hard is it to go from free flight to a powered harness?

I already practice using scooter towing.

I have been flying a powered harness for 11 years. (most of that time on an Exxtacy) I found the transition very easy. Most of the flyers in my area fly power harnesses now. We usually power up to a thermal and shut off and soar.
