I don't know if you ment the KBR tyres... For Beach they've got to much contact area... That makes you a little bit slower than with CadKads... But for "cruising" they are still okay, no problems with any ground, except for aquaplaning...

Thank you Peter haha If anybody is interested in buying almost all of the kites it would be possible too. But Single-Sale around the whole world isnt possible I think, shipping would be too expensive...

The Kites are still available!

Thank you Peter. The Kites are without lines, like in a shop too.

oh didnt noticed that... I hope the thread can be moved

Yes, I think its going to be a good Kite, too. But don't think about a new kite generation. Björn is German Champion because he is a good Rider. The actual Race Kites are in the performance nearly the same... The GT loses some good attributes of the Yak because of the bigger aspect ratio. But it wins in high end performances I think. I wouldnt say its such as easy to fly than a Yakuza. cheers

Its difficult to get this kite back to the floor xD Flies on its own No Stalling because of an special brake bridle...

Every Race Kite is lifty... Because lift is the same draft as if the kite stands in front of you, at the side of the wind window. In buggy you want that draft to get faster in every direction.... But you are right, if you dont pull the brakes at the Yak, it isnt so lifty as an combat... But to get power you have to pull a lot at the brakes... So it has a little bit more "depower"...

I think maybe > 0 - 1,5 bft or until 4 knots... Never measured it...

Great to hear that you like the Video. Horst Nebbe (Hossi) controled the cam... For the "With the Buggy" Scenes we had an Fingercam. For the Scenes with the cam in the lines we put an bar between the lines 5m above me and fixed the cam at it. It was difficult to start with the 15m Combat and a cam in its lines, because of the bar i cant loop the Kite to start.... The scenes where I did the 360° Turns are from one day earlier. So it isn't very professional, but we did our best to use all options we have... Cheers. Markus

I think they copied the combat. http://www.ikitebuggy.nl/news.php?item.8

Yes this are the first protos. It won't be the final desing i think!

We had thought about smaller Combats. But we compare the speed on a race course at 7 bft and higher. With for example a 3 or 2m Brooza you are as fast as with an Combat, but the Kite is more stable and the safety is higher... But I admit, for people with low weight its a little pity. cheers
