Re: Slingshot Phantasm Carbon foil launch - 2020

Any insights into releases of the modular components rumored early in the year? I’m aiming to pick up a 80ish cm mast by spring for more surfy days with either the phantasm 633 or Moses 633/679 and trying to decide if one is better than the other as an ecosystem to build on as more innovation occurs...

Re: How to untangle a hydrofoil from a bar

To add experience from my biggest tangle (tango?) with the foil - sizing up the situation, i didn’t want to immediately release the safety (kite was down still) because the bar had no room to slide. I found the center line to pull the kite around to flagged position and kept it tight while untanglin...

Re: Foot-Switch Bad Habits: Stuck

Also working on the consistency and dialing in the non-shuffle foot switch.

Progression recently released a foot switch video that to me was well worth the few dollars. Specifically covers dry land practice and common errors. Highly recommend

Re: How to go faster? Technique or equipment?

Not an answer - but also curious how the kite plays a role. Obviously the wing shape has a limiting factor in design, but as i have been internally debating tube vs foil kite for exactly this same scenario (light wind speed runs/touring) I am very curious if the design of the 10m Soul would be signi...

Re: Ghost Whisperer 2017/18 compatibility

It’s 2018 GW setup released in October 2017 featuring 2016 Moses product line. Your fuselage is 680 and will fit 590/695/etc wings. Moses delivers extremely compatible products so you’re fine to add a slower wing. Here’s my compatibility chart https://kiteforum.com/viewtopic.php?p=1075851#p1075851 ...

Re: Ghost Whisperer 2017/18 compatibility

Thank you!!

For that kite fuselage - is the 590 still the go-to slower yet agile wing (like the 633 has been on surf fuselage) or is there a new player that is a game changer? 590 is obviously proven and available and compatible.

Ghost Whisperer compatibility

Apologies if common knowledge, I’ve tried searching this in forum, out on internet content, and even calling dealers (“probably works”)and SS sports (no answer) - but I can’t find any confirmed assurance that I can order new Moses/GW wings for this new-to-me foil. SS GW 101 with 576 front wing. Almo...
