First measured run

Gps turned up this week so I hit the beach today for a hour or so.
Tried out the 3.5 in 15-17mph winds. Great lil kite. Pulls like a train.
This was my last speed run.

31.1mph

  2. Beat the top speed on Saturday. 33.9mph :D

    Gets a bit dicey I'm my little buggy. Kite is pulling the buggy sideways and the back end steps out a lot. Not to mention aqua planing when I hit puddles. Makes it interesting.
    New buggy is going to help a lot. Just need to track down parts to get it how I want it. Wider axles are a must which makes the buggy both wider and longer and then I need to drop the front of the buggy down as it will be too high with wide axles.

  3. Oh. The record in a kite buggy is 82. Something mph.
    Search for kite buggy 82mph in YouTube. Crazy.
