what made windwing successful in the beginning? and can you keep up with this success, now that there is a different team? are the new kites close in performance and safety to the former kites or are they totally different now? Who is in the new Windwing team? What will be the price structure and d...

The issue was not, as Toby over-simplified it, who makes the best kite. The issue has to do with the integrity and business practices of the people that now call themselves Windwing, which could very well effect the users of this forum at some point. Posing as other people, posing as a kiteboarder w...

If people knew the real story of how Chao (C+S as he posts here, posing as a kiter but has never kited in his life)... C+S... Is this really true... that's pretty fraudulent behavior That's just the beginning. He makes fake posts on the WW forum (and possibly others?) all the time posing as hyped-u...

There are so many former "bad apples" from WW that we wouldn't all fit in a room. Most of us have moved on to bigger and better things (myself included) and really don't care what happens to Chao Inc. anymore. Good to see that he is still blaming everyone but himself for his failures, nothing has ch...

Thanks!

Best to get the info straight from GK, as it is different for different sizes, and I have not even tested the adjustments I made. In other words, I'm the wrong guy to ask.

I got a Sonic 14 about a month ago, first time out on the GK bar I had trouble with it backflying, and stalling at the edge of the window, etc. Then I flew it on a Windwing CC bar (56cm) and the kite flew perfectly. Since then I talked to Lightwave Dave on the phone and he told me how to tune the GK...

Demoed a Sonic 14 yesterday for 3 hours -- I'm not giving it back. Have not ridden a lot of different kites (mostly WW Rap2s) but this kite has the least amount of bar pressure immagineable. With the WW CC bar you can ride no handed in whatever sheeting position you want, and the kite is so stable y...

I was just referring to the Patent warring on the Globekites website. It seems like a few companies have taken the KPO concept and used it without permission. Clark.. that’s on C-kites, not bows.. Pleases address the issues you've raised in numerous threads Bashing Best… The Sonic says...

I think they're problem is that they spend all their time deleting posts from their own website. Here's one from last week you won't find on WW's forum any more (it lasted about 45 minutes): Boarding Bob I have to agree with TomWa. The first version of the CC-Bar's webbing release cuff was good but ...

There are so many surprises in this business... I think it makes it interesting for all of us... Always happy to see new stuff... and guys working on things for the passion of it... Hope so...The competition gets everyone coming up with new stuff... for us to play with... So go WW! I like your opti...
