I do not say it’s useless, just that marketing bs about centering inserts. Slingshot had this for a long time, Naish introduced it three years ago. We ride a lot in the shallows, grinding over sand bars spiked with pieces of seashells. My kite buddy does this a lot and you see the wear on his Monar...

Fliptech Technology 😂 Agree, useless. How common is it to wear out the heel side edge on a board? More importantly offset mounts just make more sense and allow a comfortable stance and foot position with just about any footpad/strap on the market. What am I missing? Why are in-line inserts suddenly...

Looks promising

IMHO I think Ocean Rodeo is taking a big chance by positioning itself as an ultra-premium brand. To me the question is how do they best use the new materials and are they going into equally great designs? Just making a kite or wing lighter is not enough.

Pretty sure it's fake, we're all suckers because we want it to be true.

Excuse me but I'm skeptical about their claims on number of kites pumped on a charge.
I don't understand the fascination with this pump. Yes it's small okay great. So is this one, any user reviews out there?

And tell us about the line splitter block and the back of the clam cleat, what material and is it DIY?

One of the 1/8 is is run into the other 1/8 to make a 1/4" single line leading to the cleat. The other one is a safety line running up to one of the front lines.

How are you able to get 1/8" inside 1/8" for that long of a length? What tool are you using? Thanks

Why is it the "02" fall collection? It's 2022. What am I missing here?

Season 2 after ownership changed.

Makes perfect sense...to them!

Tried a system based on the Zeeko. The good, no clamcleat is needed and no dangling depower line. Downside, it's ultimately more bulky and harder to adjust vs a simple single depower line and clamcleat. Not worth it imho.
