Don, this looks great!. I have spent some time watching the Maui Clouds in action with Paipos and other boards and these are really terrific kites. At first you look at the strutless design and then the angled wingtips and watch amazingly as it is launched in the air. When you launch the Cloud you immediately recognise that these kites weigh half plus what normal kites weigh. They are very light.
I have a 12M and a Paipos and love them both. Simple bar connections with the Cab Bar I have too but I eagerly await the new Cloud Bar which by all accounts will revolutionise the way we currently kite with bars. Looking forward to ditching the flapping leash. The kite also folds up to just a third of a traditional 12M.
Greg is doing a great job thinking outside the box with the Maui Cloud gear and I am sure we will see more of these on the beaches here in Aus.
