I have presented a new and I feel safer method to "Drift Launch" a 4 line kite, in shallow water. My goal is to be able to launch a kite in previously unlaunchable areas in the Gorge. I hope that this method will solve the problem of drift launches turning into "tumbleweed" and "OH, S--T", lines tangled up launches. What do you think?


Here is the link to the Kiteforum Topic, I just posted:

I am looking for evaluations and criticism of this procedure. Negative criticism is expecially welcome. Where are the flaws? "Engineer's Bias" can prevent one from seeing the flaws in ones own work. I appreciate your comments. Bring it on!!
