Riders: Sky Solbach & Ken Winner

I don’t like the flutter of strutless kites.

Of course North/Duotone experiment with strut less kites.

I’m 125lbs and live on Maui, so I ride downwinding mostly. Dutone 5m 15mph, 4m 20mph, 3m 25mph. Started on a Fanatic 7ft 130L board with a Fanatic 2000sqcm front wing, 75cm mast&80cm cm fuselage. I used that about 10 times, and went to a 6’3 100L board and kept the same hydrofoil setup. I used that ...

I like Mauritius and Maui best both for waves. Margaret River, Western Australia is 3rd. Foiling and a City then Perth and you can travel down to Augusta which is a cool place with flat water or waves. Their summertime I still wear a 3/5 wetsuit though.

I’m really excited for a lighter wave kite. Thanks Ocean Rodeo, can’t wait

If a harness is desired, why not just use the wing leash you see many use, and put it with the right length close to the wing COE so it is neutral :naughty: 8) Peter A few months ago I tried that with a spreader bar on my waist leash, kinda to see, and decided I really didn’t need one. The Duotone ...

I think windsurfers and Kiters in general, don’t expect to see someone coming from upwind straight down.

I feel that kiting I am the most maneuverable, then Windsurfing then wing-surfing, then paddling then OC 1 or canoes
