Wanted to hear others on this topic
I'm very glad guys don't consider me a sexual object and girls who bite their lips over her body curves don't do guys anyways. So I'm really happy with your first point. I doubt though very much that she can satisfy a lady the way I can, just as a counter note - and that's the point when girls melt away and see you with whole different eyes. So the looks is not everything.or6 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 19, 2019 7:00 pmMy guess, not only does she look better than you, she's a better jumper as well.
On a slightly more serious note...it all depends on your kite, whether it likes to be fully powered...in other words, can it handle some back stall...it also depends on your bar setup vs here...
What are you thinking about?
My line is 5-7-9-11 and 9m is my preferred jumping wing. I'd rather take out trimmed in 9m than fully powered 7m - certainly it gives me an option to power up if wind drops a bit. And if I need to go ride fully powered 9m I'd do it only when forecast is to improve, otherwise I'd take out 11mdeniska wrote: ↑Wed Jun 19, 2019 7:20 pmI think you are doing it wrong, at least with LEI kites...
Why are you trimming it? Is it because you can't hold your edge anymore with fully powered kite?
If that's the case, then ideally you'd want to jump one-two sizes smaller and boost fully powered..

I think you making it more complicated by explaining your wind forecast strategy.grigorib wrote: ↑Wed Jun 19, 2019 8:29 pmMy line is 5-7-9-11 and 9m is my preferred jumping wing.

I keep kite powered as much as I can hold the edge. That's my logic behind it
That's a great example - for myself I know that 9m is more fun to jump so if wind is sufficient I'd jump on 9 rather than on 11mdeniska wrote: ↑Wed Jun 19, 2019 9:20 pmI think you making it more complicated by explaining your wind forecast strategy.grigorib wrote: ↑Wed Jun 19, 2019 8:29 pmMy line is 5-7-9-11 and 9m is my preferred jumping wing.

Just consider 2 people trying to boost on the same gust in the same spot. One is on fully powered 9 and another is on de-powered 11. Both barelly keeping their edge... My claim is that the person on the 9m is likely to get higher than a person on the 11m (given same skill / experience)
I say "person" to be politically correct! No shame in being beaten by a girl! :
