trying to learn kite foiling on the wild undulating ocean i feel more connected to the 'sailing' side of the sport, an added bonus on so many levels, when i started thought the biggest hinderence with kites was downwind drag, now we drag upwind... can we claim to be the smallest fastest most versitile and efficient sailing craft?

Smallest and fastest - probably. But we're not going to sleep 5 people on board or have a barbie on the back deck, so probably not the most versatile. Most portable - yes. Best bang for buck - yes.

yep very much a solo sail unless can more crew onto it to ride together... can't wait to get good enough to carry lunch and beer in backpack on epic down/up winder for arvo 'bbq' on beach, straddie here i come anyone done something similar?
