I towed someone on an old sailboard behind my topper when I was but a wee nipper, that was fun. Well, not really, slow just isnt a descriptive enough word for how dull it was

Indeed; My first kite was flat (by dinghy standards - comments were made at Grafham) and weach of my following 2 kites have been flatter still. 

The only time when "Flat is Fast" on Cats is when talking about Kites
