Both the Type Wave and Type Wave2 kites can be sick for the snow.Pablito wrote:Reverse Relaunch is the key to fun snowkiting, that's why I was thinking Rapture. The Type Wave looks like it would be a bit of a project to move the 5th line to the trailing edge for RR.
Ollie, so I'll put you down for a "BAK/Windwing/RRD Snowkite Demo Day" when that container ship comes in?
We can make a new bridge for the trailing edge for the Reverse Relaunch easily thus converting to snow machines.
Here is why I think that the Type Wave and Wave 2 kites will really work:
- They use the Total Depower system which helps you have complete control on the power.
- They already have the trailing edge connectors for the TE bridles which work for Reverse RElaunch.
- They are build super strong for wave abuse and that will help tons for the snow.
- They are anywhere between $525 (for the 8m complete) to $700 (for the 15m complete) for the 2005 Type Wave with the Type Wave depowering system!!!! And that gets you the sickest freestyle / wave kite and snow kiting machine!
