The sport has really come a long way from the 2-line "Wip-i-kill" kites and directional boards. The video brought back some memories. I started out with a 11.5m Wipika 2-line and a directional board and had some overpowered runs where you edged with all your strength or succombed to a screaming downwind run. Really scary stuff. I am glad the new kites are almost 100% depowerable.
