Tested on Utah Lake, and then with whales
Posted: Mon Nov 17, 2008 7:25 pmSome of you may have been out one of the last days on Utah Lake... when Rob Whittall had a new Instinct prototype out. (4 line version with c-kite power and bow kite de-power).
Days later Rob was on a plane to New Zealand, the new International HQ and test center for Ozone Kites. And the same kites got to fly around with some Orcas.
Tested in Utah on a little lake, before heading into the big lake of Earth.

Nothing like the other post where the kiter got whipped by a whale...but cool to follow the travels of a lonely prototype kite. From Vietnam to Utah to New Zealand.
BTW - we all have some friends in NZ if anyone is heading down under. Kitesurf, snowkite and landboard all in one day!
