    Nice one
    Some good speeds being had now.

    Think it may be time to apply some paramaters, say speed has to be over a set distance for example?

    As I know some have achived high speeds for that split second, either at the start when diving the kite and get that sudden acclleration, from standing still to moving?
    Or from, dipping the kite and edging down wind, so getting a spike in the speed reading, rather than a sustained speed?

    I only know this as I have had it happen to me, and did not know untill I had down loaded sata to my laptop and could see route info and constant/peak speeds etc.

    So what are peoples thoughts?

    @KiteCrazy, which beach did you do that on?

    sounds good to me but i'm sure like most people who've recorded there speeds they've borrowed a gps hense not being able to look at the data on the comp after and not being able to see the peak and average speeds. i think its cool to have it fairly relaxed and keep it going as it is.

    and nice going kitecrazy, you've re-set the bar for speeds on skate trucks, prepare to be beaten next time the winds a blowing and i'm on the beach again.

    i think its an honesty thing any way. even gps pic's are not proof as you could have just driven down the road at 48mph to set a record.

    mind nothing stopping you creating a new catergory. fastest average speed over 30 mins or something.

    or what about longest distance...... highest average.

    @Spooky what software do you use to look at your data. I've been usuing memory map but it often creates speed spikes itself when the GPS looses signal.

    I recently downloade gpsu and that seems much better for looking at the data, but has a limited no. of track points.

    Am using a geko 201.

    Nice speeds by the way.

    Just got a new GPS, Forerunner 301 an dit comes with Garmin Training Center, which dowload all the data when you connect it and shows average and peak speeds.
    You can also click on a "route" and it shows what speed you were doing at taht point.

    Basic stuff really, but just wondered what people thought?

    Not a bad idea but it does require people to have their own GPS and download capability.
    As Angoose says often people borrow them making this difficult / exclusive.

    How do the other speed lists (Kiteboarding/snowkiting) verify data?

    It is a bit of fun at the end of the day so perhaps trust is the way to stay.

    The only way to settle this one is to organise a speed run day with a speed gun. With enough interest it could be done.

    yeah, but what is the point in lying, by driving down the road, its pretty pointless.

    and most of the time, people can vouch for that speed, like mine, quite a few were watching, and it was on another persons GPS

    i'm heading to Muriwai this weekend. 46km long beach...... hoping to bust my top speed pb with my new speedy manta. also hoping to smash my distance covered in a day/session of 75km.

    what was the wind speed andrew? did the manta have more in the tank or were you fully tapped?

    It was only about 15mph, Could have taken a fair bit more. I think I went alot quicker on my 10m a few weeks ago in 25-30mph. Roll on some big winter winds.
