Lean, green, buggy machine...
In my pursuit of increasing speed in the buggy I thought I would try some streamlining...
Or could it be a 7m Ozone R1 is on its way to WA.

Just need to sell the Manta and Access to fund it! I hope it arrives in time for the Lake Lefroy land-sailing regatta.

Purely hypothetical...
Yesterday I was comparing the Sonic FR and Ozone R1, I have been dreaming of getting a 6m R1 ever since I tried the 11m in the buggy, but thought I would look at the other options...
The 6m R1 and 9m Sonic are priced similarly, by the time you add bar and lines in - but looking at the wind ranges the 9m Sonic has a much larger wind range, which would theoretically cover both the two kites I own now.
Which means I could argue suggest to my wife that one kite would replace two kites which I could then sell to partly fund the new kite, the rest of which could be Christmas/birthday present!
Am I reading this wrong or does the Sonic have a seriously impressive wind range? It also looks awesome in the the black, the kite not the wind range...

Buggying...
I got to buggy today! The wind was a bit all or nothing but at least I had an hour and a half in the buggy and I even over took a butterfly!

Video - Kite Aerial Video, from a buggy...
First published on Extreme Kites...
"Setup the Ultrafoil on a 70m line from the back of the buggy. Attached a picavet mount and gorpo 50m up the line - which is a little far away I think. Used some pvc pipe to raise the line from the back axle so it would clear my head when I turn underneath it. Light winds, 7m Nasa Star 2 and a very bumpy paddock. This should work well down at the beach. The ultrafoil only puts 2 or 3 kg of pull on the line although I expect more when I get some speed on the beach. Once at speed, the Ultrafoil should swing more behind me as it feels the apparent wind. Looks like it will work ok."
