Re: LAN airlines

I took several flights with LAN in the past 2 years. Mainly between New Zealand and Chile and even national flights inside Chile. The first time I asked if they had any problem for me to travel with a coffin and they told me no. My coffin bag is pretty big 145x45x50 and I never been asked for extra ...

Re: Looking for a nice all round kite

You might want to take a quick check what they're using at the local beaches. This kind of straw poll is not very scientific but it does usually indicate that there's people who have already found kit that works well in the local conditions. Also, it usually means there's a dealer or two and though...

Re: What is the best Kiteboard / Kite bag ?

Have a look to this one http://www.mysticboarding.com/products/bags-accessories/boardbags-281/elevate/ not sure if 45 is the width but even with a 40 width one you should be fine. Otherwise the North combi bag in 135 or 150 should be fine. If you're checking the dimensions from a shop website (I cou...

Re: Small kite stoke.

So... the winter storms are hitting in and I've had a couple of sessions on my little 6m. Man I just love flying fast kites. They a so responsive to input. Zing around like an angry wasp.

Re: Bill Hansen - A Lifelong Passion With Things That Fly

I much appreciate Bill's work and his down-to-earth approach. For every choice they made there is a test and an explanation that everyone can see. In a world where companies try to sell a graphic change as an improvement this is a big plus. If you don't know about him look for older post in KF where...

Re: Safety releases for harnesses

when you think of the violence of the situation where you'd actually need it - it's gotta be an instant system. That mystic setup isn't far off what i want - tried it while cranking the bar tonight and worked pretty good - here's a better video of it http://www.vimeo.com/72351507 Thanks johnm. I wa...

Re: Just another death loop

Times have changed, many new kiters have no antecedents in water sports. The main problem is this. Who had the chance to do a sailing course know really well how much time sailing instructors spend doing theory and rigging the boat with students everyday. On the kite world if a student don't put ha...
