Frame powerkite for kiteboarding?

Thirdcoast Kiteman · Since 08 Jul 2009 14 Posts Frankfort, Michigan New Member

I've recently flown a HUGE frame powerkite called "The Arbitrator." I've been thinking about rigging it for 4-lines, perhaps stacking 2 or 3 of them, and trying it out as a traction kite or a kite to use with my ATB (All Terrain Board).

Has anyone tried this?

google Cory Roesler - thats where it all started in the 1980s

don't hit anyone with those Delta kites - carbon fiber stings

Done this many times. Not really that big of a Delta. A 3 stack would be fun. Try out a Revolution kite (PowerBlast4.4) Rev's are a 4-line Bowtie looking thing. super fast and super powerful. My first rides on the water were with stacks of Rev's or 14' Hawaiian (Delta kite). Have fun. downloop across the window to slow down Thumb's Up
