Re: linemount - possible with every cam?

This is a mount I designed a couple of years ago for the GoPro Max:

Re: On Kiteboarding

I haven't been following much. Is the Wainman brand dead?

Good luck with your endeavours! The red prototype looks great.

Re: FireWire vanguard ?

The firewire logo is not the same. The kite version has the two additional red dotted lines that the surf versions don't have. kite: https://image.ibb.co/mthYrk/photo_2017_08_28_14_02_15.jpg surf: http://a407.idata.over-blog.com/4/06/46/98/4/75042_10151331097239244_585733668_n.jpg This being said, t...

Re: The next big advancement in bars

Click it and pull the bar: it lengthens the back lines. There's some clever engineering behind it. You can click with one hand...

I think - not 100% sure - that B&M's kites and windsurfing sails are manufactured in the North Sails Group's facilities. Can anyone confirm?

B&M who manufactures North kites and windsurfing sails uses the name under a licence - it does not own the name. North Sails Group, which owns the name, wants to buy B&M and threatened to not renew the licence if B&M refuses the buyout. B&M did refuse. Simple.
