Good sum up thus far... Though, the photo was taken in New Mexico (I think).

Whew, long day! Highlight was definitely flying at the Great Dunes (yes we got some footage for later editing)... And our cozy little campground for the night, San Luis Valley Campground... $18 campsite includes shower, wifi, tea/coffee, common room access, great owners also let us have an RV site (hookups) for $20 flat. Tomorrow, we finish our beautiful drive to Steamboat Springs CO!

I would also suggest checking out the in-depth tutorials we have here at KiteLife... http://kitelife.com/video-tutorials/ Technique is key to everything... Particularly "light wind", "sail loading", "tuning theory" and "body, hands and posture".

Scott, you try P90s (or lighter) yet? Keen to hear your feedback on it.

My beef with handles over 13" is primarily that it becomes too easy to go "full forward" (i.e. total release of the trailing edge). I use 13" handles exclusively (on all Rev models) because I find they provide the amount of torque I need, without any additional that might cause over-sheeting... Also, longer handles do require more manual torque to manipulate in high winds (length/leverage). That being said, it's all a taste thing... Try it all, would be boring if we were all the same!

For dual line, shortest effective length imho is 50'.
