Yes, I have noticed the horizontal extent goes up particularly if I jump it like a regular C kite at least in the case of the Crossbow. I am still playing around with launch variations but every once in a while I luck out and throw a real high whopper. It is nice when things come together.

Do you use any special launch setup with the Switchblade? I was quizing a bunch of guys on the Crossbow and started to get some good techniques dialed in with nice results. I have only a couple of sessions in with the Switchblade so far.
