Re: Lords of Tram - GKA Big Air World Cup 2024

Yeah I'm happy to see Jaime win it. He is a very gifted rider for sure! I have to say, he was killing it with that Evo Dlab too..... (but I'm sure it was the Wipika board that put him over the others! :cool2: ) Maybe it could be quite rewarding to analyse the data: Could it be that Jamie did not on...

Re: High Pressure kite by Bruno Legaignoux

What do you want ? A world record in less than 30 kn of wind ? With a 5m kite ? :lol:

Only 4th place.

Re: High Pressure kite by Bruno Legaignoux

"Poorest guy" in this aspect is Lorenzo. Seems as if these welded seams don´t have as much effect as promised :-?

Re: High Pressure kite by Bruno Legaignoux

I just noticed in the live stream of Lords of Tram that the competitors - when they load up power and pick up speed before they jump - always have this slight whobbeling and deforming in their kites. Whereas my kite - which is 75 % stiffer - almost doesn´t do this at all. I think this is one of thes...

Re: High Pressure kite by Bruno Legaignoux

Re: High Pressure kite by Bruno Legaignoux

On the 5m you've modified , could you confirm me you've modified the profile (to avoid deformation above the leading edge tube) ? by doing sewings ? . At 50 PSI the front tube is getting longer. So it became longer than the corresponding part of the sail, which put way too much tension on the sail....

Re: High Pressure kite by Bruno Legaignoux

It´s just a desaster for old kites - sorry :lol: :cool2: by watching the video of your new kite, I could believe this, it moves so fast that the other kites in the video seem to be static :o but perhaps it is due to your very fast board and skills ? Of course it´s all 3: board, skills AND the kite....

Re: High Pressure kite by Bruno Legaignoux

50psi!! 🤯 very interesting development. How many strokes to pump up that 5m to 50psi with thag bicycle pump?? How long does it take? It's a lot of volume. 🤔 Best Kites tried something like this back in 2004 with that chrome colored kite… The material didn’t last and so it failed but it also had a t...
