Re: V dristributor and lines consumption: dutone kites with other bar

Hm, can you check on the trust bar if the sheating is only on that point? On the click bar, the protective sheating is on several points matching the pre-defined points for the V distributor. Yeah, close to the pigtails seems to be a far more frequent problem. Have seen that with my own eyes. Corre...

Re: V dristributor and lines consumption: dutone kites with other bar

The trust bar has regular front lines all the way down to the low v distributer just above the cleat. The spot where the high y distributer is located is on normal kite lines and where duotone has added a sheathing. So they are gray as in the picture There is no loaded redline like on the click bar...

Just discovered that:

It would be interesting to know what type of line each manufacturer uses

Re: V dristributor and lines consumption: dutone kites with other bar

Basically it's a combination of types of lines, thickness of the lines and wear associated to the use of the distributor. I want to fly my kite with the Y beacause I tried them without and I like them better with the Y: I think that's change the behavior of the kite quite a lot in term of balance b...

Re: V dristributor and lines consumption: dutone kites with other bar

Flite99 is just a 300kg sk99 line with nylon tracers woven into it for more stiffness and thickness. That's quite a bit off the 3mm sk78 900kg lines they use on the Click bar. No wonder that those flite99 lines snap a lot sooner when you install a splitter on those, even when it's got a sleeve to p...

V dristributor and lines consumption: dutone kites with other bar

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzPDjvw8lpI After seeing this video I started to think seriously about the risks associated with breaking a line: my dutone trust bar has more or less 20 session and I'm quite worried that this might happen (especially with strong winds). I'm considering buying a Nor...

Re: Ozone Torque V3

When it is playful, doesn't it mean it is less grippy to edge? How would you compare it to the Jaime 23/24, in case you tried that one? No,when I say more playful I mean more nimble and more reactive:with V3 you can load less to have a good response. Grip is always the same from first version to th...

Re: Ozone Torque V3

At the end I finished to buy V3: much better than V2 and slightly better than V1. V3 mainly is softer and more flexible,I believe this was achieved mainly with a lighter construction: the board itself feels lighter in the hand. This added flex gives better handling in the chop and better landings: t...

F-One WTFV2 vs Razor

I know it's difficult find somebody rode both, but is there someone can compare?

I think both kite are great for UH freestyle: searching for the lighter bar pressure and faster turnig (even are not the best characteristics for this kind of discipline).

Cheers
