To answer some of your other questions. I have a .75 A2 runner. It is about 25% bigger in area than the symmetrical kite--ALIR allows SMG to be calculated of of J + sprint length. It is generally easier to rig, hoist and fly the Asym. One change is that instead of using a turtle to launch of the

You don’t actually need a check valve either. I know people who use a manual valve and run an extra hose all the way out of a thru-hull fitting. They adjust it for enough water flow to be visible like an outboard engine. Joe Coquina C 35 MK I From: CnC-List
