I've got a couple 3 strut kites, some 5 strut kites, and a Core xlite single strut. The single strut has the smallest range, and is best for light wind, but the smaller sizes are designed for higher wind foiling. Single struts will flap in higher wind, and they have lower wind ranges, and I they pul...

I'm going to Biarritz on friday - will take my kit - not that optomistic - but you do get teh odd day when the wind comes in and you'll have a great wave riding day Do you live out there? I'll have my foil and a single strut so I'll be able to kite in pretty marginal wind. Is Tarnos the spot you'll...

I’m on a bit of a random summer trip through Europe, not explicitly for hiding. I’m going to end up in the cap ferret, Bidart in the Basque Country, and then down to Bilbao to hop over to Mallorca. I was thinking of bringing a light foil setup to try to sneak in a session or two at any of these spot...

I think a GoPro 10 is probably the right camera for most people, its really the best they've ever made and is super flexible if you turn on the max lens mod mode and put it in a line mount.

Ride Mako, save your knees

yeah, this is the real answer. i love riding my foil after big twin tip days... helps recover and change the pace
