Re: Cabrinha announces separation with Lorenzo and Leo Casati

I live in the same apartment block as the Casati's. The Naish team has been kiting with him the past couple of weeks. If there is anyone here from Naish, that could teach their riders basic rights of way it would be appreciated (rider on the wave has priority, look downwind before doing a jump, don'...

Re: Duotone Kite Bag Zipper issues

I have Eleveight kite bags and have never had a problem with the zippers. My previous Ozone kite bag zippers lasted 6 month, they were useless.

It seems that some kite manufacturers cut corners / save money.

Re: Duotone SLS Bladders

Ozone had (or has) this problem for a number of years, there is information on this forum about it. Grains of salt / sand get between the bladder and leading edge, rub and cause micro holes / leaks. I was replacing bladders every 6 months. I changed to Eleveight kites 18 months ago and have not had ...

Re: Tenerife S Airport - Taxis with Boardbags?

Thanks for replies. Another question. What is wetsuit recommendation for end of March? I live in El Medano. I recommend a 3:2mm long or short arm. If you have a thicker wetsuit, no problems. There are also already people in shorty wetsuits but, I guess they are from northern Europe and used to the ...

Re: Tenerife S Airport - Taxis with Boardbags?

Get a normal taxi, they will give you a 7 seat van at the taxi rank. Sometimes they make you pay extra for kite bags. A normal fare is around 13 euro (+ bags)

Re: Other spots in Tenerife?

I'm going to Tenerife for one month in March. I dont get it, it looks like there are a lot of beaches along the east-coast. Why aren't they kiteable? Is kiting banned? Puerto de Guimar mar for example, seems like a decent spot. I'm planning to do some winging as well, so it's no need for being laun...

Re: Lighter vs Heavier Kites - Durability

As per Durum's comments and as an ex and never again Ozone owner. Without going to the extremes, durability is more important than performance. It is pointless having a super light kite if you can rarely use it. The hassle of replacing bladders, sessions missed and expense at 100+ USD / euro per bla...
