Josh,

Thanks for the link. I hadn't even seen this yet myself. You'd think they'd send me a copy!

Check out "Music Currents" on Page 10 of the pdf and Page 19 of the mag also!

I appreciate that the magazine is offered free over the internet.

The light wind take out the tech article seemed to me to be almost pointless though. There is no real data to go on. The comments were very subjective and there was no real "control group" to compare kites against each other. Everthing came out somewhat sugar coated. They even labeled all of the kites as beginner to advanced....hmmm a beginner with a 25m Hellfish? Thats gotta be safe.... right? The magazine said so....
