Blankenberge

Today I went to Blankenberge - of all places - to make some KAP pictures.   No wind and very grey weather => still happy with the result.
(Red Dopero, 150 meter high)

This is a unique structure consisting of a 350 meter long pedestrian bridge into the sea, which leads to the monumental round building.   Built in 1933 and rebuilt in 2003.

Barcelona 2017

On the last day at MWC, I took some hours off, to make those KAP pictures. The wind wasn't strong enough to lift my Kapfoil 4m2 high enough but still, I am happy with a few pictures.

Dynamic Spreader I

Based on the great ideas of Mike LeDuc, I created my own dynamic Spreader for my Levitation Delta kite.    The connectors were 3D printed by Joris Bijnens.  He designed them to give maximal support with minimal weight.  At this moment, nothing is glued.  All the elements have such narrow tolerances that everything sticks exactly on the right place on the rod....

Once we have the final design, we will share with you our flight experience.
