68-70kg, I tried the rebel with the core sensor bar but is wasn't as good as the click bar. Also I am thinking about 9m instead of the 10m that I had.
This guy likes it tho, he is a local pro rider here..

Brilliant. Remember that thread a couple of years ago with people throwing disbelief at the guy who was jumping 16m on flat water :lol:

I'm guessing the trees might give a little extra updraft?

Back to the thread. We measured the split points between the core and click bar once. The core bar is about a metre lower. The main difference between the two are the lines. I think the duotone lines have more stretch in them compared to the core lines so you get a fractional extra delay in steering response.
Well i was there the same day and the day before. Not particularly updraft but more gusty.
Wind was around 30-35 knots with big peaks.
