Kryds
Eksempel på en der er rigtig god til at krydse. Se QuickTime filmen.
Unlike Windsurfing, you don't want too much speed to go upwind. Speed creates apparent wind which leads to a build up of power that you can't control. You want to find the sweetspot where you are really edging and working your legs, but have enough power to keep in this state. You need to anticipate gusts and lulls so you dont get pulled downwind. You are better off over edging so that you slow down and almost stop, than getting pulled off downwind. Try converting your kite to 4 line. The best way to control speed so you can go upwind is to use the trimming line. That way, the more wind, the higher you will point, until you are so overpowered that you can't edge with the trimming line in full use (takes 20knots plus with a 9.5 meter)

As an example, I was out yesterday with my 9.5m Naish Ar5, and could easily sail out and back and end up 500 meters upwind of my launch spot using the trimming line in around 18knots. After an hour or so of this - the wind dropped to 8 knots, and I lost about 1km of ground in 3 runs out and back. The wind then picked up to about 13knots, and I worked my way 1km back upwind in 3 runs by edging hard, and working the kite at the edge of the window. In less wind, you want speed and power, in more wind you want to go slower so you never get pulled down wind.
