Re: Slingshot Rally 2011

anybody has flown the Rally on light gusty winds? I wonder what is its Low end and how would it react at 12oclock while getting on the board? Thanks for sharing Wind range is awsome. I've road my 10 from 14 up to about 25/28 knots.. Didnt have a problem in either conditions. Bottom end is really go...

Re: Pat Love - Bad Quality - do something!

I was down the beach just last weekend talking to a guy who had a Pat Love harness rip on him. Only had it a season he reckons.. The "belt" bit with the velcro on it, ripped off the harness. It was just hanging on by a thread! Think i'll be keeping clear of them. Comfy though, mate just bought one t...

Re: The kite DVD thread

Re: Kite keeps de-powering after waterstart

Couple of things that got me while i was at that stage was: Edging to hard. That will slow ya down n kill your power. Just getting better board control like what was said above. If you feel like your losing power, just flatten your board out and plane for a bit. You'll soon start picking up speed. I...

Kiters bad rep!

Hey hey. Over here in Australia kiters seem to have quite a bad reputation. Most ocean/beach goers that dont kite seem to have quite a lot to say about us kiters. Or at least have some sort of negative story about kites. Curious to know if its the same in other countries. And if so... Why? I suppose...

Re: "Fast twintip"

Dont get me wrong, i love my nhp. Love the size i got to.. I'm not heavy.. Cant really fault it to be honest. Just thinkin of getting something a bit different to complement it.

Re: Cabrinha vs. Slingshot?

Ooooh, these posts are fun! The arena is built, the lines are up and KR is throwing the two heavy weights in the ring to fight it out! :boxing: This season I'm enjoying the Rallys. I find you have to pry the RPMs out of owners hands. They don't seem to want to leave them for another kite...or let y...
