I use a tree climbing harness with a rope bridge. Very comfortable and no torque on the hip, very free feeling and low hook point. There is also a light ozone one without rope bridge called back country which people use for foiling. WTF? Deathtrap for a kook! Haha, while I agree in general when it ...

Looking for some fresh seat harness info. After some backpain looking to get into seat harnesses. Biggest difference between models seems to be the padding. Ion for example has some extra support in sonar and radar, but cheaper echo looks like just a piece of cloth. Is it alot more comfortable to h...

Airwave have a bar that uses the same bar as connect bar, but it comes in 60cm and is on sale for 260 euros in airwaves eshop. I tried the shorter one, it’s good.

But still! As others have said: 8m is the maximum of peak and more peak is not advisable.

I have it in the orange floating case and just stuff it under the chest zipper of my wetsuit.

I haven’t tried wing yet, but want to. The only thing I see as a maybe a downside is the lack of view compared to a kite. How much does the wing in front of you hinder your view? Are wings with windows better and do you get used to it?

What I loved about the Soul was its loop You mean the grunt in its loop? I did not spend a lot of time on Soul but that is exactly what I found hard to control and what bothered me for foiling. Of course on twintip that’s fun. Sonic 3 is similar in that sense. When I steer it up for a jump I don’t ...

I think making this kite was kinda a kneejerk reaction to the Gin Spirit. It seems like Flysurfer is focusing even more on ease of use even if it sacrifices performance. I haven't ridden the Sonic4 yet but I would imagine it's a better jumper than the Soul2 and would be the superior kite. Now I wor...

There is no need to pull a back line with such short lines. Why? Because I use seated harness and my power lines are 10cm longer than steering lines. With such set up you could loop a kite around a pivot point centered in the middle of the kite. Yes I think that’s it. My smaller kites all turn ultr...

I flew sonic3 13m and sonic4 12m back to back on twintip. What Gestalt said: Sonic 3 is a different kite, more of a race kite, I had the feeling it gets sucked forward into the wind. Going straight fast is more exciting on Sonic 3, but unfortunately it also folds in the wingtips a bunch which was th...

Is the Sonic 4 still as sensitive? I'm hoping it’s somewhere in the middle. My Sonic 4 came well tuned and changed only little in the first few months. Flysurfer used to deliver Sonic/Soul so the tuning was off at first and then “grew in”. They did not do that with my Sonic 4, which I preferre. Son...
