So Duotone, says hi y, what about the click bar? You can run that as a V single line flag out, I assume that is ok.

According to their specs - the position of the split is adjustable, so you can run it any way you want.

New north? Do they have bars already? Watch their videos - it's a variation of the older BW bar which was used by OR, GIN and others a few years back... anyhow, that's what they are flying wiith for now, it's a standard 4 lines with a V-split and a single-front-line release. Nobody says that this i...

Due to yet another surge of "can i use bar AAA with BBB kite?" topics, I've updated the chart i've made a while ago the gist of which comes down to: -In 2019 you can safely and effectively fly any 4 lines kite on any 4 lines bar, though not all combinations are "ideal" -All differences between bars ...

I'm with stupids who said: 1)your temperature range is too wide. There's no steamer on the market today which would cover this kind of temperatures, whatever you will get - will be a compromise - either a tad too cold - or waaaay toooo warm. I started with a single suit - but with experience it came...

+1 for the Monk or BronQ Funny thing is - once the initial euphoria of getting a new board passes - you will stop noticing how smooth the Monk is until taking some other non-Shinn board for a ride - you'll be in a for a surprise... And yes - what you'll gain in knees comfort - you'll loose in upwind...

Does anybody with real hands-on experience has anything with sense in it to contribute? I used to kick F-One's butt for their ultra-safe, velcro release - all while owning F-one kites. Problem is - in over 3 seasons I haven't activated the release even once. Hence - I don't quite understand - what d...

Unless you ride in some idyllic conditions where water is always flat, wind is steady withing 0.25knots and women's farts smell like flowers - the subject of this topic has no meaning.

My point was really only about the wind: the wind in Cabarete in the winter is different from the wind in Cuba because of the position relative to the trade flow & the northerly frontals. I've been going to Cabarete regularly since 1987. In the last 12 years I have spent about 7 months cumulatively...

In contrast, in my month in Cabarete from Dec 20th - to Jan 21st there were 26 kiting days out of 32. 16 of those on a 9m or 8m kite (on a SB), upper teens to low 20 knots - you might have been on a 12m, but fully powered up. The other days I was on an 11m, winds mid teens to high teens. I believe ...

I’m going to disagree with the Cuba low wind comments. You were lucky. I've been visiting Cuba 1-2X per year since 2007: -Only once we had a true 7 out of 7 - "can't kite anymore by day 3" kind of trips -Everything else was always hit and miss averaging 2-3 days out of 7 of ridable (12m kite at big...
