I picked up a GPS unit from windforce to find out how fast I can kite and how far.... well cruising in scarborough seamed to pull around 28km average.... top speed 35km...... tested it at peli point on flat water hit 42km (on a new small board).... I would expect to hit 60kmh with some practice... I know the record is around 80 but I do not want to destroy myself...

any tips on going fast (better to use a smaller or bigger board? twintips) and handling the speed.... at over 40... it feels like the board is skipping out of the water and a crash would be likely at much higher speed...
