Re: New hydrofoil / wave kite and bar: Kauper-XT

OK it seems that there is more info from my side necessary: The trim takes a bit to get used to, but we will surely manage that. It´s really helpful to ride some meters towards the kite in order to give less power to all lines. Then you can adjust the trimmer way easier. This is BTW not only helpfu...

Re: New hydrofoil / wave kite and bar: Kauper-XT

I guess the white pull is little too long and with slacked lines maybe it rubs against something. Thanks for your high res picture so I am able to investigate your problem. It was not easy, but to me it looks like the webbing has some hooks at the end and that could cause an unintentional release. ...

Re: New hydrofoil / wave kite and bar: Kauper-XT

Mine released once per session, now I have leash connected to the ring. But last three session it seems ok, but those sessions were in higher wind. Could you please also post a picture of your current setup? With the user dan_kan it was quickly clear where his problem comes from. It has nothing to ...

Re: New hydrofoil / wave kite and bar: Kauper-XT

I suppose that the sitting position is the cause of the unintentional release, but still I do not feel that it is safe setup for me. At the second time I lost my foil kite that flew far away.. at the land with out a trees it is not a problem but at deep water with foil could be worse. Thanks for po...

Re: New hydrofoil / wave kite and bar: Kauper-XT

Could you please post a picture from your setup with bar, Wichard and harness? Your issue sounds strange to me.

Thanks

Ciao

Re: New hydrofoil / wave kite and bar: Kauper-XT

OK Videos... :roll: I was in touch with my friend (he's very skilled with videos, cams, drones etc) and we have checked some nice looking videos on the web. I am not talking about those videos where you can see fantastic riders at fantastic beaches with perfect conditions. I am talking about videos ...

Re: New hydrofoil / wave kite and bar: Kauper-XT

Can't understand difficult to borrow normal video camera and make detailed video of kite in the air ? Possible to understand that Kauper is busy with his brand but still, friend can do it also. Very strange brand promo policy. Our promo policy is NOT to spam the web with expensive promo videos, or ...

The new kite sizes are priced exactly...

Re: New hydrofoil / wave kite and bar: Kauper-XT

Did you check ETFE? It is more flexible than PTFE and PFA, and more resistant to kinking. But probably more expensive too. Not yet, but I will definitely do. On the other hand I am not so unhappy with a little bit stiffer depower rope and our customers reviews are confirming that. The PU tube was v...
