Re: What is the smallest kite you can waterstarst in 10 knots?

65 kg
SS sst wave 9m,
24 or 27m lines. Can use both in 10knots
SS hoverglide H5
SS DC 42inch

Below 10knots I get underpowered
I plan to buy a foil kite (11m sonic) soon and a bigger wing like the Apollo to increase low end

Re: 12 vs 15m for Marginal

came across to another FS sonic fr but this time found a good deal on a barely used 11m. Can anybody say something about low end stability and relaunch of this kite? Is it also a beginner friendly foil kite? I cant comment on that model, but that size for me will not deliver the goods in the super ...

Re: Oil catastrophe NE Brazil - pls report affected beaches

Hope not. But inevitable it’s all connected. Hard to feel safe after this. To have an idea of distance the downwinder to Cauipe is just around 10km. That’s a shame but I will avoid this area for some time. Too bad the whole coast is at risk of contamination. Not to mention the sea food that local fi...

Re: Oil catastrophe NE Brazil - pls report affected beaches

Just reached Cumbuco shore this morning. Videos and photos all over instagram.

Yesterday I did a downwinder - upwind from kitecabana to cauipe lagoon and back on foil and didnt see anything. Hope I am oil free.

Really sad. Something should be done imediately.

Re: Slingshot Apollo 60 wing

Thanks for the review. I was also curious if it was worth the upgrade.
What mast lenght did you use for this buoyancy?

Re: Reasonably Minimalistic Bar For Foiling

How the bar weight and other features affect the ride on foil?
I am sure it is more relevant on racing but is there really a difference on freeride foiling?

Please give me your thoughts. Looking foward to improve the angles and editing on the next few.

Safest transition while overpowered

What is the easiest and safest way to change direction while overpowered? One foiling disavantage is that in some strong wind sessions you just don´t have a smaller kite. Today I was out in overpowered conditions with a 9m sst and during turns I was getting dragged downwind and crashing after attemp...

Re: H4 batwing and space skate wing

Anyone tried the new Apollo wing?
I haven’t seen a review yet but since it is similar to the popular 633 onda wing it may be a cheaper solution for an upgrade to a carbon moses.
