Re: Firewire Vader, Fins recommendations

You seem to focus on the use of the word 'opinion', so much so that you're editing my post (please don't) to make your point. I'll reiterate myself just once: he's tested them. He describes his experience, even in this thread, and apparently his experience doesn't match yours. Accept that instead of...

Re: Firewire Vader, Fins recommendations

Funny, foils tend to give more sideways and upways (depending on the angle of the fin) force, which make surfboard tails stay out of the water more easily and giving you a bit more turning force, but with speed, the foils have a tendency to cause drag. With kitesurfing you already have speed, plent...

Re: The Truth behind Naish Warranties

The local shop is trying to get out of its responsibility. By pointing you to the manufacturer, and not doing what they're supposed to do. [1] They explode - like every brand that's been sold in volumes. [2] The cause of an explosion is hard to determine for a manufacturer based on a story and/or ph...

Re: The Truth behind Naish Warranties

... You're in Australia. You have very clear and comprehensive consumer protection laws. Y'all keep saying that, but y'all keep having problems getting those laws working in your favor. I've had experiences trying to get the same laws recognized by a store and been told literally "Don't care, f*** ...

Re: The Truth behind Naish Warranties

Hello, it is my opinion that this original poster should be believed and Naish should repair or replace the kite. Many years ago myself and 15 others kiters at my local sailing spot all had our leading edges explode in the exact same spot over a few month time. They where Naish Torchs, the USA dist...

Re: The Truth behind Naish Warranties

As I said in my initial post, the leading edge exploded as I was pumping it up on soft sand, this was witnessed by four or five kiters, we were all pumping up. Precisely my point, ive seen kites seriously abused and unscathed, while I know how careful I was with this virtually new kite, never even ...
