Freda Latou Posted December 15, 2016 Report Posted December 15, 2016 I have tried with NASA 12'75 on fat bike it works great One handed you can manage the kite on short lines as good as with handles jhn.holgate and Chook 2 Quote

Its a very innovative solution to control the kite. I really like the concept. Quote
andy666 Posted December 17, 2016 Report Posted December 17, 2016 For flying NASA kites on short lines with a skateboard, maybe. But honestly, for depower kite like in the video, it's the stupidest think I have ever seen. very limited "bar throw". Very limited depower adjustment. And it looks awkward as hell to use. The only up side I could see, is that it might be easy to fly one handed. But then you could just pull the bar stopper in on a normal setup and do the same thing. Quote
SoutherlyBuster Posted December 17, 2016 Report Posted December 17, 2016 KISS, keep it simple stupid. Whilst it is nice to see people experimenting with new ideas, sorry but can not see the advantages, I can just imagine in those of /:;$&/$&/$&$-/&: situations when everything just needs to go to plan that the user will power up when in fact the pilot is depowering, or even worse, thinking steering left when actually steering right. Perhaps it might be my lack of French language skills. Unhooked, did you notice how the video stopped after the unhooked scene, no resumption showing how to hookback in. Quote
Freda Latou Posted December 17, 2016 Author Report Posted December 17, 2016 Much better than "paraskiflex bar" I was using before cause you can park the NASA where you want I will do a vid next week Compared with depower bar it might be worst but with short lines I never used one Quote
Freda Latou Posted December 28, 2016 Author Report Posted December 28, 2016 I am really pleased with it now especially when the kite stays in the air like an anchor Tomorrow I will film with a stick Quote
