My first attempt of an upwind/ downwind session on the Maliko 4.0m. Some of the most popular questions I've been getting are:
"Can this thing go upwind?" / "Can it replace wing deflates?" / "If so, how efficient does it go upwind?"
In this video you will see how far upwind I was able to get in 30mins whist trying to overcome a few obstacles.
At the end of the video I show my Strava GPS data to start to understand the Parawing's full upwind potential.

Keep the comments coming as it helped me heaps from the first video!
