For what I understand it's possible to fly multiple kites on your own (up to 5) so get the hang of that and you don't have to worry about finding sparring partners. >ta andy Chuck If life is a beach and then you die, where do immortals take their holidays ? = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Date: Sun, 23 Jul 1995 12:46:55 -1000 From: Christophe SALOME Message-Id: <3uujgv$aun@jabba.fdn.org> Organization: French Data Network - Association loi 1901 - Paris - France Subject: Re: fighting reply@cafeliv.u-net.com (user7) wrote: > > I have just got my first twinstring carbon kite, and in younger days used to spend many happy hours kite fighting > since I'm all alone in liverpool atm I wondered how kite fighting works with two strings, > and can it be done with flexi-foils (my next buy ;-))? > > ta andy I never heard about fighting with a two lines kite, but why not.
