I just read Josh Emanuel jumped 28.9 mtrs on his Core XR5.

That's like nearly 7 double decker London Buses stacked up.

Or for our colonial cousins it's 417 Big Macs.. (Big Mac = 2.75 inches)

Or given the average size of US 'mens bits' that's like the height of over 208 dicks?

Like you I switched this summer and can't say I like the difference between the F2 & F3, too much rocker for my liking, but then everyone knows i"m gay about board rocker. Oh and here's what another fine fellow did to his black and white graphics.. https://scontent.flhr3-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/215...

Well according to Flysurfer they're best flown naked aren't they?

Too much for my attention span (I think I have a USA gene) did he mention his shaft and lubricating it?

I'm so disappointed we didn't get PMU here to answer expert that he is at working his shaft, but those experts at Core had the right answer it is of course PTFE spray and the well meaning chap went away happy in the knowledge that his XL pump shaft will work smoother than ever next time he wants to ...

So today, I'm on the Core Stand at the Kite world cup in Fehmarn, where I have to sadly report a couple of foils won the round island race which you might find upsetting but then a guy comes onto the stand(booth for our US friends) and asks the question. What's the best lubrication for my shaft? Nat...

Oh and while I'm on, The Secret Squirrel has also just broken his weymouth harbour personal best at 44 kts, on an XR5 9mtr he's not letting on yet so keep it quiet, he's trying to win Weymouth speed week on a board he built himself, don't tell anyone I said anything OK?

To nearly fifty foot in the air, what a kite that XR5 must be, good at bulk lifting as well..

Well don Stu, another personal best falls to the XR5 magic.

Plenty of innovation about, well maybe not so much innovation but refinement, those Core/Carved snowboard click bindings are cool, jurys out on those click bar systems but you can't say they were not innovative and probably the bugs will get ironed out in 2018 and if you don't think kites are still ...
