Re: Aluula Kites - for those of you who already have some hands-on experience

I have an A Roam 10 which is just great for foiling, surf and snow kite. The usable wind range is insane. It flies super early (6-7 knots?) and is stable well over 27+. The only downside is less grunt than the average kite I'm used to so in low winds on foil you really need skills to get going. And ...

Re: Aluula ? New Revolutionary Material from Ocean Rodeo

The order is placed, a Roam 10m A-series coming my way soon. But 8-12 weeks wait, unbearable! 😂

Re: Aluula ? New Revolutionary Material from Ocean Rodeo

Has anyone yet received and flown an 8, 9 or 12m Roam? Would be interesting to hear impressions and possibly size comparisons if having ysed the 10m before.

Re: Aluula ? New Revolutionary Material from Ocean Rodeo

Wind ~ 6 to 8knt max i guess. A LF solo 15m was in the water. I launched the roam. Made a first attempt. Kite was flying even th...

Re: Aluula ? New Revolutionary Material from Ocean Rodeo

First light wind foil session on the roam yesterday. Ketos foil wing 1200cm. I started the day in 15knt slowly decreasing. I went out on my neo 7m, than at some point in the afternoon, I had to loop the 7m like a mad man to mange to painfully get on the foil. So i went back to shore to pump the 10m...

Re: Aluula ? New Revolutionary Material from Ocean Rodeo

Just back from a TT session on the 10m aluula roam. Flat water. Wind I guess 12 to 20knts. I think except a couple kids and light women I was the smallest kite on the water (other on 12 and 14). This is usually the case as I like to fly smaller kites, But it worked with the roam too. No Pb going up...

Re: Aluula ? New Revolutionary Material from Ocean Rodeo

No need to over analyze wind charts. We know they are taken with a grain of salt. These are simply the same charts as for the standard dacron roam, and yes they do seem conservative (for a change). How bout some more real life user comments, keep those coming! It's only in lack of real-life testing...
