I got mine today! It came with the wingtips flaked (like an accordian) and the middle folded. I saw picture online where someone had flaked it instead of rolling. Is it ok to roll this kite? Seems like flaking it would be a lot more difficult out on the beach.

How does this compare to the Sonic2? Saw one in person, but havent gotten mine yet. VMG is definitely fast! The guy who had it said the 3 row bridle system makes for less tangled when launching and landing. Others have said on other posts that vmg has lighter bar pressure, worse relaunch (takes on ...

I gave it a go at the same time after coming off my 15m Sonic 2. It was a pretty good kite! Going upwind it was noticeably slower than the race kite (as expected), but other than that it did all the foil kite things well with no bad behaviors (no tip tucks or collapses at all). Going downwind it was...

No, I like kitesurfing because of the kite. Have you tried it faxie? I talked to a kite foiler and wave foiler who had gotten a chance to ride the prototype Lift Efoil extensively last year. He was over the moon excited about it. However, he had the same issue of the price ($11k) and would not be g...

Looked like a great event! For kites: FONE kites look different from the Diablo V3s I've seen, so these are Diablo V4s? Are Ozone riders on R1v2 or prototypes? Flysurfer riders are on the new Sonic VMG which replaces the Sonic Pro Race. Off topic: What a confusing naming scheme from the original Son...

I hope it leads to more racers and more regattas like it did last time! Even in the short amount of time that kiting was Olympic in 2012, the world championship had 150+ racers.

I don't know why so many people decided to start racing because of the Olympics, but I hope it happens again.

The Soul blows the Hyperlink out of the water. Its not even a fair comparison. Its above and beyond better. Im not a flysurfer dealer, rep, team rider or anything. I had a hyperlink, tried the soul and wow. Its in a different class. I wouldnt say Ozone has the freeride market corners. The SOUL is c...

Slingshot has come it a lot. They've sold MHL Lift, LP, and Moses foils rebranded. They also sell Elf's foil kite. It doesn't bother me. If they see a good product and want to distribute it through their network of dealers, what's wrong with that? It not like there is a lack of options for foils on ...

Pretty wild that in 2018 we are seeing inflatable kites winning a course race, and TT boards placing 2nd! Not a course race, just a downwind (broad reach) distance race. The key to winning this year was not to crash. Last year in the same distance race there was half as much wind and I did the cour...

Yeah I think their windfoil one design is called rsx:convertible
