I know it's very early days in the evolution of kite racing, and love going fast myself.

Over time I have spoken to many kiters about board design, but normally the comments are about whats wrong with this board in this condition, but good for that condition....etc......

Being a little ignorant on the subject of design, it accoured to me that a high speed power yacht cat style has it all.
cuts through the chopp with ease, with a bulbous front end, and with some, the jet powered vessels have zero drag or protrusions. holding the edge with the rear of the hull, with a sharp cut away.

Just putting it out there..

Came across these images that got me thinking...
