I reckon that it's brilliant! I have a inflatable surf SUP with a mast base attachment, and it's actually good fun out in light winds and small waves using a old windsurfing rig that I had lying around. However, dragging all of the rig around is a pain, one of the main reasons that I took up kitesurfing. This rig would obviously eliminate that problem. Also, I bought a new family tent, that you inflate with a standard kite pump. It's way more rigid than a standard pole dome tent, so I am wondering whether inflatable kite technology was the inspiration for all of this new gear?
