At 1:20 there seems to be a high aspect firefly with center strut!

In the video on Page 1, the canard being used looks to me like the wing tips may not be as square as the XXLW? Nicolas has also said that they are bringing out a 1600 sq cm foil, so could that be a canard? All of this is speculation on my part apart from the bit about a 1600 sq cm foil. I think you...

Saw a carbon spitfire xxlw on leboncoin, dont know if self built or prototype.


I hope there is one coming, also a wingsize inbetween xlw and xxlw would be great

Nixmatters, is the xxlw a selfbuild or the new edition wing?

I also learnt on the spitfire xlw. It worked well and i am still on it and very happy with it.

This article describes a wing design which is supposed to be good in turbulence: https://spectrum.ieee.org/automaton/robotics/drones/a-new-kind-of-wing-dramatically-improves-flight-for-small-drones It looks like it could be good for hydrofoil builds. Has anybody tried something like it? Or is there ...

I am 80kg and my 5m LEI is good until 30kn and not higher. 4m is my guess for you at 25kn plus.

There is some nice wave foiling in this video, especially from 1:25 on:

No booties are best booties... these soliteboots are by far best a ever had. they have couple features that make them very different and much better Thermoformable - they are really custom for your feet From inside they are not fabric but "rubber" means - your foot is locked inside - no slipping in...

In that case you won't mind me calling you "a fucking retard"

It’s the other way around: retard is offensive, spastic means uncontrolled muscle contractions, thats what i have after too much sport

I recognized the same on my 5m Cabrinha Radar from 2015. Since it is my smallest kite I often ride it a bit overpowered and so I guessed the small frame of the kite deforms more under the load.
