c'mon dave... "bows have more depower than c's and are easier to use" please ... maybe if your talking about a slingshot c :) pulleys, bridles, flagging lines that tangle so no-body uses them ...... the list goes on.
I borrowed a bow last week,(had an unscheduled trip to Sumbawa with out any gear) I think that will be the first and last time I fly one of them. It may just be cause I'm on the heavy side (100kgs) I had the same problem with Peter Lynn kites.. Anyhow.. didn't like it one bit
I'm glad to be back home with my SS Fuels.. Real power
