KiteLife Posted December 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 The difference with Indoor rods is significant... They are quite fragile, but we find the much lower wind range very worthwhile... We were flying 8 people in 1-2 mph, on 90# lines, with minimal difficulty. As for length, they're specially cut for our 1.5's at the factory (custom job)... Being so thin, the usual reinforcement at the ends of the rods are even more important. The Indoor kites are much harder to control, but it can be done... With the Indoors, it's even more about not being all the way in forward or reverse... Controls are only slightly forward or back of neutral, and the hands have to stay closer together (instead of the bigger, usual bicycle motions).

lummas Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 Good to know John, thx. Perhaps will have to have a chat with Lolly and see about getting some of those rods. Have a great new year. Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
