Ive been landboarding for three years now and using C kites onland for over two years now. I currently fly a 12m and 16m 06 Rhino's and a 9m Slingy Ignition.Up untill 3 weeks ago I had only been on the water once.Then I made a ply board thats 132 x 40 and found it was ok but flexed a lot! A kiter I only know to say hi to lent me a slingshot board (no idea what it was but had a wood effect?) that was a 128 and it was great. Last week I sold my playstation 3 and brought my self a new RRD 5X TS 130 x 38, and love it.
