What are little (Carbon) foils made of?

https://kiteforum.com/viewtopic.php?p=1105157#p1105157 Saw above post and wanted to talk about “carbon foils” It seems that core is foam, wood at best, wrapped in glass with a layer of carbon on outside. Some will say that carbon outside is only to falsely advertise setup as “carbon”. Some will say ...

Re: What I love and hate about the Kauper-XT Pintxo bar

A buddy in IL is selling two of his for $390 a piece. I flew one and as Jason said - light, innovative, yet to my aggressive level of looping the bar was biting onto center line tube.

Still a good bar for travel weight cautious riders who don’t loop agressively

Re: Moses w800

Sorry to hear that you snapped a mast! Question regarding the new moses high aspect wings..Are the W900 and W1000 wings basically bigger versions of the W800? I wish Moses would provide more details on their wings and the intended use. To my understanding Moses developed what they call “race DNA” w...

Re: Moses 679

Tighten the bolts again up after first and second sessions and they will stay put. Don’t overtighten them - you don’t want to extract mast inserts like teeth

Re: Ghost Whisperer 2017/18 compatibility

It’s 2018 GW setup released in October 2017 featuring 2016 Moses product line. Your fuselage is 680 and will fit 590/695/etc wings. Moses delivers extremely compatible products so you’re fine to add a slower wing. Here’s my compatibility chart https://kiteforum.com/viewtopic.php?p=1075851#p1075851 ...

Re: Slingshot UFO

I would like hear wind ranges of UFO 5,7,9m in reality on a 1000cm2 hydrofoil. Not "crazy under powered looping kite like crazy to go" low end, but power enough to get up with simple power zone start. And high end that's comfortable. Frankly, it's hard to believe SS stated ranges. To get my butt ou...

Re: Slingshot UFO

Hopefully Vasco or another experienced Cloud rider can take a UFO for a spin on event site and I’d post feedback.

Funny that Vasco’s question on the shore was “what about a bar?”. Good question

Re: Slingshot UFO

Greg got ahead of all with strutless and could have milked the design more. He is reportedly a very nice dude in person but his email communication somehow is soaked with attitude which might be just business precaution. The lawsuits in US are not fun and are not cheap to deal with. Anyway, let’s al...
