I was very close to Ixia, one of the better places to mite IMHO. ;-) Searh the forum for it and you'll definitely come across it. I think last topic where I replied with some good info and e-mail-addre...

SS Fuel 15 will do the trick for ya. Get's me going @ 12knts (75kg) and can hold it untill 20-something. I then switch voer to the Fuell 11 since I don't really like kiting overpowered. Learning new moves overpowered is the wrong way to learn new moves, unless it has to do with hang-time... I used a...

Hi Pierre Hi Shamikaze, Were you kiting just close to the hotel or in another place ? Were you disturbed by planes landing at the airport ? I was kiting approx 3 km from the hotel direction Rhodes.

I wear comfort bands. Standard rings cut my finger kiting. I've lost 2 rings kiting. I buy cheap rings. I can't be bothered taking it off every time I kite. I kite way too often. I must admit : I am jealous of you... It rarely blows if I am in the neighbourhood of the beach. And it blows 4 days out...

Decent kite-surf location : Rhodes, no doubt in my mind... I went to Rhodes for my honeymoon last year, stayed in the Miramare Hotel in Ixia W...

I've got the SS 19. I think it's a great kite so far, but indeed you do have tokeep your boardspeed in check. Although, I would say the opposite of Briel. The lighter riders (me : 75kg) are more likely to be pulled downwind if there technique isn't good & clean (heavy back-fot, very heavy indeed.......

Count me in Currently I don't wear my helmet when goiing out in very light winds (.12knts). I am the only kiter on our break that always wears the lid. I started to wear it again in november for protection of the cold (around 80 of you body heat is dissipated through your head), so I could stay out ...
