Re: Eleveight Introduces the new light RS+

I really like the idea of a more rigid LE. Please release a WS!

Re: Do kites stay at the same pressure after hours?

After a kite gets rolled in the surf, it always feels softer. Could it be the air compressing during a session?

Re: Somali-jet

I get 56 out of 60 days good kiting in Western Australia, but that doesn't give the adrenalin of being chased by pirates.

Re: Kite quiver in Maui, place to rent a board?

Kanaha Kai.. Had nightmare with them trying to charge an unreasonable replacement cost for an ancient board.

Lesson take photos of the board before departing the shop.

Re: x-bar

It's not that we really need faster turning kites, but it could lead to some really unique designs of way more powerful kites or perhaps better drifting kites.

Re: The kite factories

Try DSD. The designer Dano has worked in design and testing of Cab and Slingshot since the early days and owned BWS.

He now designs for North and owns the Hyde Kite factory in the Philippines. At this point it's a small operation, but I'm sure would be able to help.

Re: Buying gear with crypto

USD has been almost perfectly stable (compared to Cryptos) and hasn't deflated too much whereas Cryptos have been all over the place.

Re: Buying gear with crypto

It would make no sense for the retailer, unless they are converting the crypto into fiat at the time of the transaction and charging you a premium to do this.

Otherwise by the time they need to cash the crypto to pay their 30 day credit line from Duotone the value may have dropped.
