    His wing was too big for the conditions for a beginner. He never had enough control. No matter the wash he would have been blown back. Nice day, I know why he wanted the try. The moustache looks fun !

      @@Flyingtreegreat, thanks for responding. Will check out the new wing. I guess, with 75kg tow, I would not fly the 18m moustache above 30 kmh as a beginner. Below that, it should be fine. Wanna use it for low wind days. Otherwise I will be kitesurfing. Also will check out Denmark, once I got the Mo. They have these flat dunes, which makes learning much more safe imo.
