Hi Guys,
In Austalia we are ment to stop racing if the wind exceeds 22.5 knots for a sustained period of time. Many insurance policies do not cover us in winds over this, therefore clubs and classes have adopted this as their wind limits.
Had the kite up on our Tornado twice in winds in excess of 30 knots and reaching as high as 36 knots. Very scary, very exciting, bent the mast and broke battens in a HUGE catwheel the last week. Time to ring Marstrom.
Go Hard
