Re: Sonic 3 vs 4, side by side?

Nearly good for what?? The sonic 4 has significant design changes, especially with regards to aspect ratio being shortened up. The sonic 4 is more agile, faster moving, turning, etc. The sonic 4 is more boosty, and more forgiving with take off and landings. So for jumping the sonic4 is a significant...

Re: Flysurfer Sonic 4

Gestalt, What foil setup are you using? I am surprised that you are having backstall issues with the 12. If you are not expert at tuning the kite, I would ask an expert to look at it. A lot of foil kites are unfortunately not tuned properly coming from the factory. What do you mean by "foil" setup?...

Re: Flysurfer Sonic 4

A few other things I wanted to mention. I find the 12m Sonic4 back stalls a lot easier than the 15m sonic4. When I want to ride aggressively on my twintip the 15m seems to have more pull through grunt and maintains its power delivery better. The other thing i noticed is that when boosting with the 1...

Re: Flysurfer Sonic 4

Just got a chance to try out the Sonic4 12m & 15m. For reference I had previously been flying the Sonic3 11m, 13m & 15m. Keep in mind these are my subjective opinions. The sonic4 i find to be much more boosty. It takes off and boosts easier and higher than the sonic 3. Its more forgiving on the take...

Re: This kite could change it all | Emergency Episode | The Megapod

Can someone write a few words about what this is all about? 8) Peter Colin was approached by the famous Kite designer Ralf Grösel while kiting at the beach, and asked if you wanted to try out a new prototype kite. Ralf Grösel is the designer of the Evo DLab, considered one of the best performing ki...

Re: North navigator Pro

@Brent NKB

My only request is you also release it in a 60cm size, and with line segments so that I can get to 20m easily on it.
This way I can use it more nicely on my large foil flysurfer kites!

Re: Wave Kite with very little Bar Pressure

I have a 8 & 10m Aluula Roam. Both kites have exceptionally light bar pressure, and love them for foiling. Like said earlier power is very on/off on these kites. I do not like them for stormy wave conditions, as they have zero boosting ability, and no grunt. The wave kite with characteristics I woul...

Aluula can be welded.
Looks like Aluula "Duralyte", "Graflyte" and "Aeries" can be welded.....but not Aluula "Gold"!?
