Im very very sure the 10 trip has more power in lightwind than an 9 or even 10 m bandit. I owned 8 + 12 myself, both perfect foilboard kites, but a pain in the ass wenn being overpowerd, really not funny. When not overpowered also fun on a wavebord in waves. Don't expect to be the trip to be very si...

just to mention - I don't work in the surf industry (I'm an environmental engineer). but I do my own surfboards windsurfboards kiteboards snowboards skateboards kiteboards foilboards foils since 1982, just for the fun of it. must be 50 or more boards meanwhile. Before and parallel I also did a lot o...

hi, i will cut the wing from an XPS core with hot wire like model airplane wings are cut. where necessary, the wing will then manually been shaped to final form. then the core gets some reinforements / stringers and is laminated with carbon or glass. some pictures of 2 foils I did in similar ways ar...

You can watch the pictures here: http://surfforum.oase.com/showthread.php?t=162792 My idea was the following: - Design a wing ...

hello, extremely interesting thread.....yesterday I just stopped myself buying a printer in the last second.....(loads of other projects...that don't get further due to time shortage...). just to let you know - a friend of mine made a printed foil this way, very much on the simple end, but there mig...

my board is a "0" volume 148x48x2 cm Arriba Arriba foilboard. even on this board I sit to relaunch if the wind is below 12 knots or so. it lifts me just some centimeters but the situation gets much more balanced than when just swimming without board. and, when I sit on the board, I don't loose it. i...

just to mention I also built a front wing out of XPS molds more than a year ago. the mistake I made was to much anhedral curve but the wing and the whole foil works very well and I still use it sometimes in this german article you will see at least some photos of the big red front wing (size and pro...
