Re: "Spin-out" with SabFoil Medusa Pro 869?

I was just about to suggest this cause and I scrolled down to see your solution. Might be that the surface imperfections of your mast and mast-fuselage connection are causing a ventilation which affects the stab performance. @Peter, you can't compare the 869 to another wing with same size/dimensions...

Re: Moses SABfoil

will let you know soon how the 730, 835, 980 work ;-) Hi @handy, did you have a chance to try it out and plan to post some exciting write up on razor vs et al? Any first hand Razor reviews (apart from the Sabfoil promo and Gwen's review in Damien Leroy Youtube channel)? I had a chance to try the 88...

Re: Gear choice advice for novice

Thank you all for the advice. So, for taxiing the 850 would be easier in my case? Once I am comfortable taxiing, I should switch to the 1200 and start to foil up? Then, once I am comfortable foiling with the 1200, switch back to the 850? EXACTLY! Taxiing with short flights and touch downs brings mu...

Re: ‘Neo-B’ New Generation Kite Pump

I would like to collect opinions from everyone. How much do you think neo-b should be priced at? Good progress, Vladi! :thumb: I believe you can also get some help here for a proper name. This Neo-B sound not less Chinese than Cor Pump, TOPUMP and most of the copies of Airbank (which btw is the onl...

Re: Chicken Loop & Fireball - Harness Modification

If there's room, run a rope slider on the spreader bar in addition to the normal spreader bar hook . This would allow using the fireball QR without the ball/stick part, just attach the Fireball to a ring on the slider rope or if you want to get fancy, dig out the metal piece from the ball/stick par...

Re: Chicken Loop & Fireball - Harness Modification

.... Cabrinha could have (should have) offered a spreader bar with a Modular type system to change out the attachments for the Fireball, hook, and rope. Instead they opted to make the attachment options built around the Modular QR system which forces one to have two spreader bars. One for a hook an...

Re: Chicken Loop & Fireball - Harness Modification

That doesn't look or sound right at all!

Why don't you just use a soft shackle and connect the Fireball QR directly to it?
Or use your Fireball spreader bar on the Stealth harness. The Cabrinha Freball spreader has 2x25mm slots for the Mystic webbings, and weighs pretty much the same.

Re: New control bar front lines shorter than back lines

The older Cabrina bars had adjustable pigtails (the set on the right), whith length that can vary between 13 and 30cm and be precisely adjusted to the mm. You can surely find such adjustable pigtails. Infexion and Ventum offer them for sure. To your question about putting a knot on the pigtail (in n...

Re: North Orbit Ultra

What's to understand about N-weave? It's not even on their "PRO" kite... :rollgrin: You don't see the irony in the esteemed high tec "sailing" company that's the only big name left still only making Dacron kites? That it's one of the most complex weaves to make. And arguably the only one stable in ...
