Re: Foil Kite folding in half when going upwind!?

Ok guys I've made the following changes. All knots in a row as per manufacturers instructions apart from Z which has been extended 4cm. Here are two vids of it flying in 7-8kts ish. Any further tuning required?

Re: Foil Kite folding in half when going upwind!?

Hey guys thank you so much for your replies. It sounds like the front stall and collapse. See attached image, a,b,c & d knots are all aligned. Do you recommend putting a 4cm spacer between the mixer knot (black) and the D bridle (blue)

It totally collapses in the middle and folds in on itself. It happened today resulting in me being rescued. I've checked the knots wher...

Re: Moses front wings - a guide

The HP580 should be paired with the Stab345 for a race setup. I have both the HP560 with 330 and the HP580 with 345 both have never mixed and matched. The HP580 has a bit more glide and is faster through gybes so you have to be careful not to overtake your kite. I dont see why the 330 stab wouldn't...
