Re: What makes a wing easy for air tacks and jibes?

Changing the angle of the rear wing greatly helped with foiling transitions for me.

Can you adjust that on your foil?

Re: The Pansh A15, an A18 review

Trying to read up on pansh and I am coming across lots of threads where people are strongly cautioning to stay away from their products.

Lots of red flags. I'd hate to throw away money on something that's inferior quality

Re: The Pansh A15, an A18 review

What kinds of issues would I expect to have with one of these kites if I bought one. Are there consistency issues? Some kites maybe need a lot of tuning to fly right? What are the weak spots in the build that would need special attention? How much different is this kite to a higher performing kite l...

Re: The Pansh A15, an A18 review

what am i missing here? on the pansh website the 12m a15 ME is 350$ ??? this seems like an incredible deal for a kite that resembles the flysurfer 4? can it be flown on a different bar and lines without the need for 5th line? is the kite recommended to be bought with pansh bar and lines? only anothe...

now I bought 9m Pansh A15 foil kite that I find more user friendly. It was a bargain and works well. Like you, I can't budget in 2 pricey foil kites
can you tell me a bit more about your experience with the pansh? looks similar to the flysurfer speed 4 to my eyes.....

Re: chrono v2 9m or 11m?

I want a foil with a sweet spot in the mid-upper teens with gusts to 20+ and lulls to 10-12.

Having more low end would be nice. I've got an 8m edge for 20-25

Re: chrono v2 9m or 11m?

yes he is on a lotus....

seems everyone i have mentioned this to is recommending the 11m. these foils must have a much better upper range than LEI of same size....

my edge 11m is a handful in 20+ on the foil.

Re: chrono v2 9m or 11m?

thanks for the replies, given the cost of these kites i'm having to choose one size at the moment. my tendency is to pick the size that i would be able to use most often which would be 9m as the winds i typically kite in are in the 12-20kts range but if the 11m can manage a 20kt gust from time to ti...

Re: Which kites for hydrofoil?

There are many possibilities: Cloud C2 (i have the 17 and love it), Naish Trip (i have 10 and 12. Less luffing of the canopy due to cambers behind the LE) or from Liquid Force the Solo (one-strutter). I think also North launches an one-strutter: the mono. And dont forget the Storm Voyager from Fran...
