Parawing: can you go upwind?

A foil parawing goes upwind, but that's not the point. The real question is how many degrees of heading are lost with each gust, with each power adjustment. Bruno Sroka, three-time kitesurfing world champion, explains the physics of parawing upwind travel and why the Push Bar System® provides an additional 3 to 4° of upwind heading, by decoupling dynamic power management from kite control.
