High aspect kites (Turbine) sit close to edge of the wind window. I'm in love with my 15m Turbine, but I don't think it is high aspect at all. I believe this is marketing by the companies. I can do a side by side comparison one day against my 17 Contra if you want..... I do know my 15m Turbine is a...

Also couple of my friends managed to get those ropes break on them and for me jumping with a rope spreader bar is a no. grig, I hear you on the jumping issue although I only see that issue with the hydro...but again, I'm so removed from the fixed point I cannot compare...I don't feel any issue doin...

I bought a Dynabar months after I first started years ago b/c it just made sense to me to have more freedom. I'm more advanced now and really don't know any better. I'm mostly hydrofoiling now and the only thing that is weird to me is when I boost big on the hydrofoil I may go into unintended frontr...

I'm reading up to understand which kite to use for hydro foil in weak winds. I get confused, some brands claim their hydro foil dedicated kite flies forward in the wind window, others say their kite flies deeper back. And both claim their flight position is the best. Strange. Since this is about ae...

Toby, I didn't get to watch, but I saw you stated Marc likes right foot forward better...do you think that is more for the rotations in the air or for the height? I find it weird on kickers they would have trouble getting the height they need on their bad stance. I'd think they have the time and per...

I wear a 13 sized Nike running shoe in the US. I got lucky with my first board b/c it had the slingshot bolt on straps. I will always use them as long as they are available. They are big, the straps are flexible and easily expandable during riding. My big foot doesn't hang off them either....these a...

I know this is a troll thread, but here is my honest thoughts anyway.......I bought a 16m Pansh Aurora II foil kite 6 months ago to dip my toe into foil kites. First of all the kite sucks balls for foiling in light winds, it is so slow I am honestly better off on a 12m LEI in 10 knots. I LOVE boosti...

Why are deck pads so freaking expensive?...I've getting ready to build my own board and I was like wtf when I saw the prices.

plummet,

Any idea what the size of your front wing is?

Thanks very much for taking time to write. Just have to ask why did you try the H3 16 if you have the Contra 17? I think I understand though, always looking for something better? That's how I am too. The allure of a very capable kite at that price is very tempting! alford, My 17 Contra is a great k...
