I'm really into this concept. I started on the LF Foil Fish and am now riding the MAgma Barracuda which foils really early and is super stable. I've started to catch some unbroken swells at my local beach - nothing like the Laird Hamilton videos - but am having lots of fun. I'm flying foil kites ge...
How many sessions to you consider to be a lot of sessions? I am thinking specifically in terms of gear wear and tear. Do you think 75 sessions is a lot for something to be "worn out"?
I have no experience with North. That being said, every few years companies come out stating this type of thing. Its been discussed at length.

never used the Legacy. I had an Element Carbon and still have an Element (wood). Both 139. I really like the element wood version with no fins and boots.

Also when the wind is light or strong for that particular kite that can make it do funny things. I use a rope with clips, i actually ride with it on my harness inca...
My theory is if i pass today i could live to kite tomorrow! Last year in New Jersey i used a 6 envy once where i was really jacked up and it was not fun. I get 5-10 or more days on a 7 so thats really my small one (really its my wifes kite)... I can also use it to foil. I get lots of 8m and 10m days...
