Re: Which Duotone Vegas?

I have been using C Shape kites for the last 10 years. I decided to switch to standard kites 6 months ago (Dice) and do not regret. Except if you are riding where the wind is very stable (not gusty). There is so much advantage of using bridle kite.
C Shape is now outdated i think..:

Re: Kiting northern coast of Colombia in Jan

Hello, I spent one year in Colombia in 2010. Santa veronica was delivering a solid 25 knots every day in february. January should be good also. Carthagena is working also but not as good as santa veronica. Cabo de la vela is to be experienced. Very remote place. Wind is a bit gusty. Could find wind ...

Re: Now: Kitesurfer drifting in Colombia (Cabo de la Vela)

Toby,

Wind is offshore for at least 30km from cabo de la vela. If the wind was not strong enough, Hi could not go upwind and the wind pushed him far away from shore.
I have been riding there many Times. If the wind drop. You are fucked.

Re: Now: Kitesurfer drifting in Colombia (Cabo de la Vela)

Straight distance from cabo de la vela to Manaure where wind is sideshore (not side on) is 65 km.
The wind bend where the coast bend Also. So no way the wind Will help you come back to shore.

Re: Now: Kitesurfer drifting in Colombia (Cabo de la Vela)

Hello,

Cabo de la vela is full offshore. Strong and gusty wind. Area is almost desert. Some indigenous leaving in the main village wich is the main spot for kiting.

Nothing to compare with the orher part of the coast like santa veronica or Carthagena.

Best regards,

Re: Naish Torch 2019 bar compatibility

Hello, Tried it today in lower wind. Line lenght seems to be ok. The kite does not fall back when the bar is fully powered. Big change from previous models. The kite close itself when bar is powered. Maybe it is due to the longer bridle in the esp mode (which I use). It is not a problem, just surpri...
