Great review, it's good to hear that someone else likes the Skjorpio as much as I do!

Shame about your bad experience with the Diablo bushflyer, mine were excellent. The 8.5 was very good on land and both were good on water. Stability was excellent as long as you flew in onshore winds of sufficient strength. Gareth

In August I'll be spending a weekend in Bridport Dorset. What are the best spots nearby to kitesurf? Are there any restrictions etc?

8.5 Blade, no hassle, self launching, and I'm on the water while the LEI boys are still pumping up..... :-) 169 or 149, 12.5 stone.

Kitesurfing is allowed in the central area during the winter months, I believe up until Easter. Everything wheeled has to use Jurys gap.

I've also seen it done with a Raptor 1.

There was a guy surfing with a Bullet at Greatstone a few weeks ago. I didn't see it myself but I was told he was doing well.

I ditched my Blade a couple of times when I was learning to waterstart but once I was up and running it was very easy to keep the kite in the air, and it's never come close to hitting the water since. We use a 2 line set up on on a bar, it's all you need. Gareth
