Re: GoPro Max 360 3D Printed Loop Mount

Congratz. Looks quite good. Can you post a small sample video ? Also - how does it get attached to the lines? The holes are pretty big - doesnt it move all the way ? P.S. I just sunk my Gopro few days ago due to a fragile plastic of a 3D printed mount that was promoted here on forum as well. I gues...

GoPro Max 360 3D Printed Loop Mount

Finally had a chance to test the 3d printed GoPro Max mount I designed a while back. It worked great! Tested it over two days and never once had the lines get caught during many loops. It's still possible to tangle with this mount, specially if you drop the kite in the water and the lines go slack. ...

Re: Advice used hybrid board

I personally like hybrid surf-foil boards. They're not the best at either but the drawbacks are small. Being able to bring 1 board and quickly switch from foil to surfboard when the wind picks up is awesome. I don't know if that price is worth it, I paid way less for my Slingshot boards brand new bu...

Re: 3D Printing Advices

"What I would be doing is mostly kiting related stuff like printing hydrofoil wings, adapters, fins etc.." Yeah, that's what I thought too when I got my 3d printer. :) But what you'll end up mostly doing is figuring out how to dial the printer in, how different materials work, all the setting change...

Re: Wakefoiling with no rope technique

When I tried it on my buddy’s boat, it worked pretty well but I had to be very close to the boat. I don’t know the size of the boat but I thought it was pretty big; it’s an ocean fishing boat. I bought jetski and even with my GoFoil M280 the wake is nowhere big enough to ride without a rope. There a...

Re: Low rise booties - looking for feedback.

I like the Ion Ballistic booties because they have an aramid sole. Not sure how well it works but I'd rather have it than not. After seeing my buddy skewer his foot on a hidden mangrove stump, I'm scared to wear anything else. He wasn't wearing any booties back then though.

Re: Airush Baseplate 3 degree

Shimming the plate allows you to change the angle of the foil wings for more or less lift.

Re: hydrofoil under Airush Sector V5 54

@Norcom I fear a sector V5 60 will be too big /wide for this , will be heavier too? I just meant as I have the v5 60. I swear at some point I had a similar idea as you to get a plate for the boxes when I first started foiling. If you’re worried about “not getting” into foiling, well, read my post o...
