Great piece of kit in my view. I've had two Sunday mornings flying alongside standard B vented kites and with a little flier input the Xtra Vented held the lines and window without the physical stress. This was in c25 mph...

I'm with Felix, in high wind you can not beat this kite. Fugeddabout adding in that extra leading edge. We used them a couple of times down at SPI and they were great in 25mph+ winds.

On it's virgin flight (in winds gusting to 40+ mph) mine cut through the sky... like a hot knife through butter! ...and so smooth! ...all that gave it a try were amazed!

Definitely one of my bag Favorites! Posted Image

Definitely a kite to have in strong winds. I flew in 25mph+ with green race rods and the precision of the kite was phenomenal compared to a vented.
