Re: Gong Hipe compatibility with other foils

Thanks for the reply.

You are correct Cabrinha plate uses 8M, not 10M.

I recieved measures from Gong, and now I believe I can use standard T nuts for 8M screws and they will fit on the Gong Hipe.

Re: Ozone cracking valves

Many thanks both for your coments.

The kites are in good conditions so I am replacing all old valves.

I wonder in what year did Ozone introduced the V2 valves. It would be great to avoid future 2nd hand purchases with the same issue.

Un saludo y buen viento !!

Re: Safety tip for landing a kite with one up

I do this all the time with my 13 years old kid. Is not an operation for beginners. Just handling the kite with one hand while the other hand is occupied with another kite can be challenging for some non-experience kiters, moreover with larger kites. I never lay.my kids kite in the floor. There is n...

Ion Riot Curv 9/14

Hi after several years I need to replace my Ion Apex 2011 harness.

I am interested in a hardshell, not too hard, surf rope set up.

Father of three kids with budgetary restrictions, wont pay more than 200-250 €.

Can any of you provide your experience with the Ion Riot Curv, 9 or 14 models ?

Thanks
