Re: Why a Wing Board and a Kite is Awesome for the Lightest Winds

I been playing with Peak 5 13M kite in 5 knots conditions on a regular kite-foil board grove race board V3 with 925 cm2 HA armstrong front wing. Initially I could not get going at all as single skin does not generate any power.. even when looping.. very little.. But after watching some videos on a v...

Gong Hipe Pro

What are the views on Gong inflatable boards? is there a consensus on what is the "king" of inflatable boards in terms of quality of construction and how they ride? I was told that many people complain about quality of previous Gong inflatable boards? What is the view of people on this forum? The ne...

But I will try on a wing board.. lets see what happens . What is the technique of keeping the board from going downwind? with a wing...

Re: Flysurfer Peak 5 is here

Was trimming the kite profile critical to the ability to go in 3 knots? The factory setting is not going to do it? on Peak 5 there seem to be two settings which I did not explore yet: flat and curved.. I am not experienced with adjusting the foil kites bridles , so I am not sure what it will do or h...

Re: Flysurfer Peak 5 is here

Thank you this is very useful. I guess I need to try with my wingboard first as you suggested. What is the technique of keeping the board from going downwind? with a wing, you can position the board upwind by moving the wing back.. but with a kite how? Also, how do you get up onto the the board to s...

Re: Flysurfer Peak 5 is here

Can't get going with Peak 5 13M. Hi all, I bought Peak 5 13M after watching a video of Hugo going with it under 3 knots.. So I thought in 5-6 knots, surely I can be flying with this kite, but no :-( As many already posted, the kite has absolutely NO power when diving it.. I tried to loop the kite, b...

Re: Spot New Caledonia

Thanks for this mate.. Can I ask what are the best spots for kite-foil and wing foil ? For kite foil, requirements are deep enough (1m+ ) and flat to small waves. For wing foil, requirements are deep enough (85 cm + ) and small to medium size waves. preferable non-breaking rollers to learn winging i...
