Where I am (North of Mozambique), the life of a kite appears to depend mostly on age. That’s kind of ridiculous/impossible but that’s the way it appears. After about two years valves start coming off, whether the kite has been used little and takes well care of or a lot and left flapping on the bea...
Still, I reckon I want my next one in Marko/Epoxy or Hydroflex. You can have both. Hydroflex has a new foam they call EFC (http://www.hydroflex-surfboards.com/hydroflex-technology/efc-surfboard-construction/index.php) which is closed cell, apparently developed with Marko but adapted to work with th...

The chicken loop has released four times trying unblock the depower line on the cleat. the naish´s dealer i...
