Thank You.. Welcome to KiteLife.. You'll find the conversations here much like the conversations there at Flying Smiles...

Hi, and welcome to the forum. Lots of quad flyers here. Good to have you on board.

Those maneuvers are extremely dated and simple, some calls details have evolved, but the basic movements required should serve as good practice items. With regard to 40m, I believe that is the international (non US) team standard, it’s close enough to play - the only challenge it presents is during “follow the train” maneuvers where kites with shorter lines are leaving wake or turbulence, through which anything on longer lines will have to fly (like driving a bumpy road). Worst case, it’s easy enough to shorten within a few minutes, which I am happy to personally assist with if it’s agreed to be advantageous.

I work Monday to Wednesday at the local Agricultural College (Teaching building construction and Maintenance) On my days off I work from home from 8.00am to 12 knots...........to go power kiting in my buggy or land sailing. My local "Pink Lake" I use is only 2 kilometers away.
