+1 Then I realised that what I thought was powered, wasn't really powered at all.Huib wrote:Hmm. The first times I was very dissapointed when I used the Woo. I really thought my jumps were much higher.
Woo told me the truth!

My woo score is always pretty close to my estimate, once you've kited a few years you know when you're going high and not.deniska wrote:Your eye will often lie to you..LetsFlyaKite wrote: If you want to see how high you're jumping just open up your eyes and look, if you're jumping higher you will know because you are higher off the ground.

It always feels more dramatic from first person's view than from the ground.
Makes it hard to objectively compare yourself with others.
This is why many people get disappointed seeing their actual woo readings for the first time...
Negative Yes - after spending $300 on a Bullshit Woo 1 device - it dies after bugger all sessions...Huib wrote:Why are you so negative? What is your problem?ShaveTheWhales wrote:Yep the Woo is Bullshit
They bring out an updated version + a waterproof case (because they die from water - even though water proof)
And Suddenly people are jumping bigger ? Wooo legandary !
People are jumping higher because the Woo is a big stimulatation to jump higher then your friends.
Capetown was the past weeks the place to be for new PR's.
part of the reason I haven't purchased one yet. I see they now do little waterproof cases for them. Anyway. When the technology is robust and the price is down to around $100nzd i'll think about itShaveTheWhales wrote:Negative Yes - after spending $300 on a Bullshit Woo 1 device - it dies after bugger all sessions...Huib wrote:Why are you so negative?

My local shop replaced it on warranty and after bugger all more sessions, that died too.
Interesting as I emailed them that I didn't think it was working properly after a huge session in 30-50knots. Did some huge jumps in perfect conditions,from full speed flats into 3m waves on a 7m Screamer - and it only read 12m..
Funny that off flat water, NO waves, ive posted 12.6 meters. That's when you know its bullshit.
Ive also done a half assed 14.6m jump in choppy waves
Their response was that it was working properly.Then it died a few sessions later! Great response and Quality from Woo again.
I had an Xesnr when they first came out - guess what... that died too on the first session!
So yeah that's why Im pissed at forking out money on something they cant even waterproof.
Read up on a lot Woo buyers who had theirs crap out & replaced quite a few times.Just look it up on the net!
That's why Ill post my $300 of Woo slapdowns, until they get it reliable and save someone from wasting their hard earned money !!!
