FORUM : feedback from a beginner !!!

“Hello everybody!!!
A little feedback after my first outings. Just finished my beginners lessons, I’m 100kg, Strutwave 13m and a Matata 5’6.
1st outing : test in 16/20 knots I took off in a straight line for 200m!! Night fell soon after and after a few good tries… some water starts and a body drag it was over.
2nd outing : 10/12 knots, Kite came down twice when the wind died down but re-launchd quick when it picked back up! I was pleased, I started back into to it with a body drag and, I don’t know why, but the Kite came down again I was pulled up the beach and I released the safety line. Synopsis : I didn’t have the time be be scarred because the safety relate works great, again I’m happy with my gear!!
3rd outing : 12/18 knots, I prepped my Kite alone on the sand thanks to a fixed point, launched, I got away from the beach with a body drag and my Board underarm, the waterscape is a bay thats really choppy with 3 WindFoils in action. Water start and up and at ‘em, a super long line for 2km, half turn, with ass touching water, then back at it with super long heading to the other side. Magic. I was on it for about 2 hours!!
The Kite responds quickly to the Bar, it accelerates fast at the start and then locks in smoothly in the power zone. When pulled in it feels like gaming a motorcycle.
In brief, yesterday was just fantastic!! I was laughing to myself on the water, and shouting out when I got the adrenaline rush!! Long live Kiting!! And I wan tot thank L’Ours for the good advice!! Can’t wait for that next session!!”
