Re: What’s the best board you have ever tried?

I haven't tried enough but so far I love the Nobile Fifty/50, great control and pop when powered, it s a lot easier to hold more power with deep edge and pop aggressively than other boards i have tried. big con is that is pretty slow compared to other board, definitly want to try bigger size. Or may...

Re: choosing twin tip SIZE you give more importance to your weight or how much you are overpowered or underpowered?

Do you have choppy or flat water? do you like riding in waves? to you want upwind performance? do you want smooth through chop? do you want nice carving? do you want a sharp load and pop? do you want max jump height? All these questions lead you to the type of board you should buy. thank you all fo...

Re: Beginner kites with the best safety systems?

slightly off original topic but you can watch any BRM video and notice each user will pull the center lines and they can easily reach the bar. maybe some people just dont know how to make full use their equipment and consider that a downfall of the brand... its pretty simply just a kite connected t...

Re: Beginner kites with the best safety systems?

Not sure which one is best bar but my wife toolessonson cabrinha bar and she was able to release walkback upwind and reset bar easily with no mishap. It didn't work on fone Bandit at all, you can't walkbackupwind when you release, kite stays a bit powered.
New liquid force bar looks pretty nice too.

Re: Cabrinha FX 2018 vs F-One Bandit 2018.. Need help ;)

I have a last question. My Girl is riding our Kites too. The bandit is handling gusts with ease and is having a very good depower Management. Is the fx nearly good too? Didnt try depower and my buddy at his level doesn't have much feedback either on this. I know a few kiteschool that use SB for les...

Re: Looping technique, XR 5

Your explanations aren't super clear, radius of loop should be a bit tighter on 7m but also a lot more play of where the kite is looping in window... it's so fast that a bit of different timing and you might be pulling loop a lot earlier so it loops deeper than if you loop it a bit before or after 1...

Re: Hand drags getting yanked

Thanks for the tip as I’m also learning slides and drags, but I need to sort out a truly basic fact as I’m not into loops.. I’m not yet clear on how the two major actions affect power and speed of the loop: 1) little steering vs fishpooling , and 2) how much you pull the bar (not talking about stee...
