With the experience of Crico 1.0, Crico 2.4, and Crico III, and after measurements done on several kites, the Crico appears to be the kite offering the best aerodynamic output. It should thoroughly suit to kaping in light winds. I named it XL for Extra Light.

Its behavior is the one of other Cricos. However, fly in light winds is another technique. We feel the effects of thermal winds, even weak, and local turbulences. So, it is fitted with an anti-thermal wind bridle. For kaping, it is very reliable. It also gives me the opportunity to make photographs in low wind conditions.
