Re: Dangerous depower rope (below bar)?

Trimline is only dangling only like 15cm out of the butter box, but sliding rope and leash are so close, that it happens often. I thought you would have anoher attachement idea for the end of the trimline, because I really need to use it sometimes - mostly when riding in waves: going outside fully p...

Dangerous depower rope (below bar)?

Hi, I am using a slingshot bar with the depower rope below the bar. On my harness I have a sliding rope and often find the depower rope dangling around the sliding rope or my safety leash while riding. So if shit happens, the depower rope might get stuck either on my harness rope or safety leash and...

Slingshot swivel is big crap - need alternative

Hi,
all of my 4 Slingshot guardian swivels are no more working properly. The newest is only nearly one year old and doesn't rotate anymore. I already put some Sailcote on it, but stil a pita to untwist after every downloop transition manually.
Can yoi recommand alternatives?
Thanks

Re: Gong foils: discussion

Hi, I own both, curve L + curve 39 stab and fluid LS + fluid 40 stab and have not figuered out yet which combo I prefer! Curve+ curve is not necessarily the slowest. It only accelerates slower than the fluid. Top end speed is nearly the same. You can unleash the curve by putting the fluid stab on it...

Re: Current Kitefoil surf-type foils

Hello gang, would any of you radicalized foilers have any recommendation to replace my current GONG setup? :D I ride a 100cm carbon mast which is very rigid. My front is a Fluid L-S, a "highish" aspect front wing of 1100sq cm, and a small, 230 sq cm stabilizer (FLuid S 39cm). Love the combo : it ha...

Re: Gong foils: discussion

Thanks for your comment. I experienced the same as you. 100cm nearly in all aspects better. Only nice roundhouse cutbacks (frontside) are a bit fickle and feel not very loose and relaxed as with my shorter mast. It is more kind of short snap or hack. Backside turns and carving rail to rail is more f...

Re: Gong foils: discussion

Thanks a lot Janus.
Unfortunately there it is nowhere to be found on the web. Either new or used as monobloc with integrated fuselage :-(
