Re: Officially announced: North becomes Duotone

Definitely not my cup of tea ! Can't get over the name the more I say it the worse it sounds, and the colors and font are just ugly. Suppose it opens up the market for new , innovative and more reasonably prices kites to get noticed. I do wish Duotone all the best but I won't be splashing out on the...

Re: Instructor Certification

Just became an instructor a few months ago and honestly found that there is endless supply of work and even during my course was offered a job !

Shinn Ultrasonic !!

Absolute beauty of a board pop is so good and also enough flex to not smash your knees after big jumps..

Re: Is it a crazyfly raptor ltd 140 too big for a 66-68kg person?

I now have a 136 which is much better for Jumps and grabs ect , previously had a 132 but the slightly bigger size makes me more stable on ...

Re: Harness ion hadlow or np atom?

You’ll get more of a feel if you try them both on and see what fits better ! Check closer the tightening straps too and go for the most durable ones

The NP looks a bit retro to me though ..
