I know this thread about the HL V2, but could someone that owns a HL V1 (9m) be kind enough to measure the wing span and depth of profile “please”
It would be very much appreciated.

Haven't had time to measure my Hyperlink 9m. Too busy foiling, building boards and day job. Perhaps tomorrow. I have no idea how to measure the profile depth...

13 HL v2 with a Peter Lynn Nova 10m , is a 3m gap too big,too small or a good combo? 70kg rider with Onda633,winds from 8-20kts.

Depends on the wind. For a 2 kite quiver I like both kites close together and easily overlapping in the windrange I like best. Foil kites have huge range and Ive spread as far as 7m to 17 meter. But I dont mind giving up the extereme light winds or survival kiting and I want bot kites to work on the best days so if one breaks the other works well and I have a more powered or less powered option. 7-9 is more my range now. 10-13 is fine
