Re: experiences with HB SURF Legion v1

Hi lorenz Had the same issue with my Legion v1 7m twice and it's a weird feeling. Both times it happened in strong and very gusty conditions. To resolve it I released the kite and after relaunch it went back to it's normal shape. Not sure if more pressure helps but the legion recommended pressure is...

Re: North - MY21 Collection

The bar is one of the best in the market for sure and the design is outstanding. Lines are nice too. Only thing is that the depower throw was too short for my liking for waveriding (needs to be 50cm+). Is it still the same this year? Maybe it would be good to offer bars with different throw (freesty...

Re: hydrofoil / wave kite and bar: Kauper-XT

It should be compatible with every bar. If not you just have to change or adapt the depower line or safety line. No rocket sience. Agree that the SK clickclick deserves it's own thread.

Here is the clickclick howto mount to your bar video:

Re: Favourite surfboard for choppy powered up conditions, but still small waves

HB Anti 5'2" in Biax construction. Slices through chop like nothing else IMO. Tried the North Comp as well and this was pumping as hell. The Anti is very versatile for Strapless Fresstyle and also excels in small surf. Featherlight 2.5kg. It's expensive but worth every penny. Will come with FCS2. My...

Re: hydrofoil / wave kite and bar: Kauper-XT

True that any release can open. That's the reason they are used. But if I would get some accidential releases I would loose trust in my gear and just move on. The probability that the wichard opens accidentialy is very high. IMO it's just a outdated heavy design that was not designed for kitesurfing...

Re: Problem with North Navigator bar

After looking at the different hooks I think it's a space issue. The mystic seems to have the most space inside the hook. So I would duct tape around the chickenfinger to make the space smaller.

Hope that helps.

Re: Problem with North Navigator bar

You're right. My post was not helpfull. Didn't get it that you use so many different harnesses. But in the end you need to replace or modify the chickenloop/finger. Or replace the hook. To find a compatible hook: As north is under the same roof as mystic I would start with a spreader bar from them. ...
