Re: Beginner lessons Ventura/Carpinteria/Santa Barbara

By Ventura River Mouth, you mean C Street. Not a great learning spot due to downwind rocky point break, lots of surfers and pretty aggressive (wave possessive) kite locals. Silver Strand (Oxnard, Channel Island Harbor, South side of jetty) is better. Less chop due to wind shadow from jetty. Decent l...

Re: My legs are too tired - am I doing something wrong?

Hey vojtech, Sorry, it seems like every time a question gets asked here, the answers can cost a lot of money! I'm 60+, maybe 20lbs over weight, seat harness, mako, and my favorite stance is leaned way into the harness, like almost hanging in it like a mountain climber, butt maybe skimming the water....

Re: Twintip board recommendations for people with knee issues

+1 for the Mako. Had one for the last 7 years and love it. Super fun in waves and nice in the chop. They do eat power though. Chop eats power too because it's harder to hold a clean line when going up wind. Expect to go up a kite size in some circumstances. Unfortunately, expect a few finger wagging...

Re: The perfect Surfer - Electric - Car ?

Sorry to interrupt another Matteo rant, but back to the original question... Just get a used Tesla Model S. Low $30,000 USD. I own an O.G. 2012 with over 100,000 miles and it's still the best car ever. Very minimal range loss (maybe 5-10 fewer miles on full 265 mile charge). It's only been in the sh...

Re: Fastest 12m wave kite?

I use Epic Renegades in waves. 11 and 13m and have a great time. Maybe it’s not “real” whatever blah blah, but they pull and drift just fine.

Re: Reasons why Toby should delete Climate Change Threads

Currently on Australia's East Coast where I live and kite we have an unprecedented number of bushfires which have been occurring for a number of months. This is in late winter, early spring, summer is still a month away. Usually we get the heavy lift firefighting choppers etc from the USA fire seas...

Re: 13m Kites..... why so few?

Epic Renegade is a nice 13m kite. I weigh 240lbs (probably more like 250 fully geared and wearing a soggy wetsuit). Works great for me.
