It’s every kiter’s dream to be able to keep riding fast and easy in light wind. Light winds generally mean winds between 10 and 14 knots, unless we’re including kite foiling, which allows riding in even lower wind speeds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve tried riding in such winds, however, chances are you may had experienced disappointing sessions with an inability to ride upwind or even with your kite crashing without being able to relaunch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
