Re: Switch Element v Nano

donshank... I'm the guy with the 12m Nano that BillC mentions above. It seems like I am a similar kiter to you... mostly just cruising around while working on things that resemble jumps and jump transitions, carving turns etc. :) Occasionally I ride in the ocean and small waves, but by no means am I...

Re: Punta Cana looking for recomendations

Looking for a place that would be a vacation for my wife where I could kite. Some friends told her they had a great time at Punta Cana and saw some people kiting. All inclusives are a treat for her but I would rather have a root canal with no anesthetic than hang out around a pool with a bunch of f...

Re: Punta Cana looking for recomendations

I was there in 2016, but it was January. Wind was decent at that time, but I was still a kook. I got a 36hr stomach bug at the resort which ruined a day and a half... it was probably from tainted ice in a drink, but no one else in my family group got sick.

Re: Training Kites - Why do they differ from Kitesurfing Kites?

Price. No one wants to pay a lot for a trainer kite that will only be used a few times really.

Re: Ocean Rodeo Mako - 140 or 150?

Resurrecting this old thread... I've had the 150 since 2019 and just ordered the 140, which I'll be receiving tomorrow. Weighing in at 155lbs, I felt that I would benefit from the slightly smaller version as it's the board I plan to use in "moderate" to higher winds. For light winds, I'll mostly sti...

Re: Exuma, Bahamas Kite trip?

Ok... not a lengthy trip report, but the forecast delivered... it was 25-30 the entire time :D I went to Aruba 2 years ago, and yes Aruba has more consistent winds day after day, but because I caught it just right, the combination of kite spots and convenience made this a better trip. Emerald Bay an...

Re: Exuma, Bahamas Kite trip?

Been to Exuma last xmas at Paradise Bay, Emerald Bay is only fine if the wind is at right direction but Cocoplum wow, more chances with wind direction. If I was going to open a kite school it would be at Cocoplum 😋🪁 Danlar, thanks for the feedback. I was in touch with Exuma kiteboarding and they sa...

Re: Exuma, Bahamas Kite trip?

I head there next week... check out this forecast... do I bring my 12m, or just go with the 7 & 9? 8) Seriously. I'm a lightweight at about 155lbs... I won't need the 12m unless this forecast is a total flop, and it hasn't changed in a week... in fact it's gotten even stronger. I'm going to most li...
