I wonder how 2024 rebel SLS compares to Nitro and Orbit in terms of jumping and single loops. It was mentioned that it loops a lot better, but does it fall into the same kite category as orbit? Spent 4 hours on the 2024 Rebel the other day in very steady 25-30kn. In short, it's not in the same cate...

Hello, I think you have well tested and ride with the different Orbit and Nitro v2. Could you compare the Orbit 2023 and and the Nitro v2 ? In particularly for loops, boost, stability and ability to manage the gusts ? I do not think to change to the Orbit 2024 because not as fast in loops as the Or...

F-One has a nice handle. It looks like the bolt holes are slotted so they can micro adjust for different insert widths. You’ll need to confirm this and the adjustment range. I’m just speculating. https://www.f-one.world/product/tt-handle/ The FOne handle is quite a bit wider than most other boards....

24.2 was JBo. Lewis said on the stream it was 30kn gusting 60kn. I heard from the beach it was all over 20-30 gusting 50+. The highest the local meter there (I don't know where it's situated, so accuracy is very suspect) was 29 gusting 44. It looked both a lot less windy and a lot more windy than th...

It’s utter rubbish these guys are essentially risking their lives doing an extreme sport for our entertainment, yet get paid next to nothing for comps. 3000 euros for winning a leg of the “world championship” is horrendous. I don’t know how much their sponsorships pay them to compete, but I doubt it...

Anyone knows how Marc Jacobs is doing ?

Badly bruised ribs and back from round 2. Both ankles, both knees from round 3. Suspected torn ACL.

Won't know how long he's out until he's back in NZ.

Jason Montreal is waiting for wind to do his review of it.

A few people around here have said it's easier to ride, more explosive lift, better looping, not quite the hangtime of the Edge. Next time it's windy, I'll see if I can steal one for an hour or so.

Marc did his ribs and back in round 2. Round 3 ACL and ankle. Apparently it was 22-30, gusting 40-60kn. Riders didn't know if they were going to get lifted or dropped and just hoped the gust lasted long enough to land.

Wishing him a speedy recovery.

It broke for about 5min. All back and going now.

Currently watching Andrea getting scored really well for super shitty not double loops.
