Re: Wind speed at Flag beach Fuerteventura in July

..... Cotillo: where do people ride in Cotillo if the main beach is not allowed? About 1 - 2km South from the South edge of Cotillo there is a sandy beach locals call Pedro Playa. Called something else on Google maps. There is a dirty track going South along the beach. Kitesurfing part of this beac...

Re: Kiting with a torn muscle?

<<Having said all that, the simplest, fastest way to speed the recovery of a muscle is rest alternating with LIGHT steady motion and alternating hot and cold. Ten minutes hot to 2 minutes cool (doesn’t need to be ice, just below body temp, like a cold wet cloth). It will simply increase blood flow t...

Kitemana prices to UK?

Confused. Kitemana online shop gave me a good price on a kite + bar. At the checkout there are 3 warnings: 1) that 21% Netherlands vat is excluded from the price (ignored that one as I am in UK?) 2) AND 20% UK Vat is excluded AND 3)that courier might charge me another £14. At the checkout kitemana s...

Re: Impact vest recommendations

Since you have a seat harness: Look outside of the regular kite brands as well. The kite impact vests usually have little to no flotation to speak of.. I am sure you can find good options in the sailing and kayak markets with various amounts of flotation. I am quite happy with my forward wip vest. ...

Re: Wind speed at Flag beach Fuerteventura in July

I would give it about a 30% chance of wind before 17.00 this July. However if you are mobile, the other spots like Cotillo will be working. -- Gunnar Thanks. When u say Cotillo - should I go to the town beach as shown here http://se.kiteforum.com/kitesurf/spot/fuerteventura___cotillo Never been to ...

I was using my 14M 65% of time approx (I'm comfortable with it up to 22-23 knots), 10M otherwise, never needed 7M.
Thanks.
So definitely taking 14m!

Based on your experience - would you go with 14 + 12 or 14 + 10?

Re: Wind speed at Flag beach Fuerteventura in July

:evil: :evil: Advice: bring only what you use at the beach, do not leave kite or equipment in the car. In February I’ve got stolen from the car a new red pivot 9m, while I was out for one hour with the 12 at flag beach. Maybe it’s obvious for someone to do not leave anything in the car, but it was n...

Re: Wind speed at Flag beach Fuerteventura in July

Looking at wind speeds just now June 2023 it looks like 12m would be too small most of the days. On fact it looks like there are lots of days of 12 mph/14 kmh. I know July is +2 km/h on average but now leaning to 12m and 14m for my 95 kg weight. Does not look like I will be able to use 10m much - if...

Re: Rental cars without split rear seats? Common in Spain?

Use autorisen cheap and good, get a Dacia jogger loads of room, with split seats . Ps you would be very lucky to get 25knots at flag beach. Thanks for suggestions! What I see at the moment that if I search for a car now or next 7 days then price is half of what I get for mid July. Tempted to wait u...

Re: Rental cars without split rear seats? Common in Spain?

Ok, you could be able to fit 2 board bags at passenger seat, 3 not. Or get those mobile track systems for the roof…they are quickly installed and work well. Google them, don’t know the name I'd imagine if you specified a hatchback you'd more likely have split seats. If you put a couple of pool nood...
