Superfast twin tip?

[james]

Yup get the underground More than fast enough I won weymouth speed week on one back in the day

Nice video of one.

They were always easier to sail if you set the straps up asymmetrically, it helped overcome the short length and flat rocker

ask Tilmann

can sell you mine. Full carbon and still in good condition. Hope, 55,5 kn is not too fast for you Best results: http://www.gps-kitesurfing.com/default. ... =806&uid=4



(wait until 4:44 )





think meanwhile I´m too old for that shit

I hope this doesn’t read to much like an advert, but I wanted to share my experience of fast twin tips. Everyone has their own opinion.
I designed the Upeksha Gawa race boards that were quite popular amongst the competitors of the 2018 Youth Olympic Games (YOG).
These Gawa boards were originally designed for maximum jump height, and later adopted for downwind slalom racing. In my opinion, the higher controlled speed at time of jump release, the higher the jump. For me, these boards allow 5 knots faster board speed at time of release compared to a “typical” mainstream twin tip. This control at speed is also what drives a good downwind slalom race board. These boards are light also, 2.1 to 2.2kg without straps/fins. We have found that in chop, adding weight to the board extremities (above the fins) makes them smoother through the chop but not as much fun to jump.
We have just completed a new race board custom designed for the L2L race in Perth. This board is 40cm wide, effective length 152cm, more rocker than a Gawa, and 38 inserts to allow traditional TT symmetric foot pad setup, or directional set up (L2L is a starboard reach race only) while still being compliant to IKA TT:R equipment rules. This board is faster and more controlled than our Gawa boards, and faster in winds over 16 knots.
I have attached photos showing the inserts (painful to drill out), directional pad setup and the core of the board which is a bit unusual. We cut the core into 14 strips so we get 15 shear walls running the length of the board.
Cheers,
Craig.

Yeah I have the 2015 Axis ltd. Can easily maintain nearly 40mph when on flat water.

there're real dudes out there...

....and then there's this guy.


impresssive stuff man

[POACHER]

I've read that the Naish Monarch is a really fast, stiff, low rockered twin tip. Anyone with experience?

I love my CF Raptor Pro, it's a fast TT, but I want to go a lot faster on a TT. Any suggestions?

When I want to go fast I have found that pumping your kite(sheeting in and out rapidly on the bar) sends you into turbo mode. I do it all the time and blow past people. The pumping lifts your board out of the water into a more planning vs plowing situation....
