Re: 2012 Switchblade vs. 2009 Waroo range?

I have a 12m SB 2012, I'm 200lbs and it is my largest kite. I ride in light wind with my skillit or borrow a large twin if I can. The 12m turns really fast and generates a lot more power than my 13m crossbow did (which is why I canned it). I haven't ridden the 14m SB, but from everythign I've heard ...

Re: 2012 11m Cab crossbow & switchblade wind range

I had a 2009XB11m and a 2010XB13m. The 11m I quite liked but the 13m was so slow turning and not the lightwind machine that it was advertised to be. In about 12-14kts (I'm 200lbs) I was struggling to ride on my XB13m. I borrowed a 2011XB12m and was instantly staying upwind (granted the wind picked u...

Epic Kites Demo Sessions in Hatteras

Just returned from the Masskiting annual trip to Hatteras. I had 4 great days of riding, mostly SW and one of the highlights was demoing a variety of Epic Kites with Dimitri up in his home riding spot in Nags Head and down south in Kinakeet at the Masskiting house. I've been dabbling with kiting for...

Re: Outer banks/Sound side side offshore?

I'm heading down friday for 3 days of kiting. Looks like the wind will be mostly N, even NW to start off. I've never found kitepoint gusty.

Re: Where to stay in Hatteras for a long weekend. Watermens

Thanks everyone for their input. inn at pimlico was booked, and waterman's isn't that much more expensive for the 2bdrm. I'm probably going to roll the dice and go with that.

Where to stay in Hatteras for a long weekend. Watermens OK?

I'm going to be in Cape Hatteras for a long weekend (Fri-Mon) and I'm looking for a place to stay. Normally, I'd sleep anywhere as I do when I go there, but I'm taking my mom as a 70th birthday present because she has always wanted to see this place I talk so much about. My ideal situation was to re...

Couch/Room needed Hatteras 7/23-7/25

The wind forecast is epic this weekend in Hatteras and I'm thinking of making a last minute trip down from Boston. Not surprisingly, I'm having trouble getting anybody else on board with this trip. If anybody who lives down in Hatteras or is there now has a couch or extra room they would be willing ...
