Re: Worse kitebaording gear you've ever ...?!!

I don't mind telling the truth Worst kite I owned was the naish x3. Pure crap. Worst bows I tried were airush halo (first year, never tried anothr and best waroo (maybe a second year one?). Both were terrible. Hideous kites. Wouldn't give one to someone I hated. Not that I hate anyone of course. For...

Re: Comparing Wave Riding Styles...

Too bad the posted video of miti makes him look just average. Simon pretty much sums it up on that. Overall just more lateral overpowered kite mid faced moderately good hacks with opposing bar pressure and some dangle hops. Can't say that raises the bar. Looks like above average strapped riding from...

Re: Comparing Wave Riding Styles...

Your responses were as predictable as the riding. If you can't disprove the truth of the message attack the messenger personally and acuse him of "projecting lethargy" on the sport then go on a silly little feel good p.c. tirade about how "every new rider advances the level of the sport". Which of c...

Re: Comparing Wave Riding Styles...

So......I haven't looked at the donkeyforum in about six or eight months and imagine my surprise to see the same old topic I thought about it for a few minutes and I think it makes some sense. There hasn't been any real consensus in this discussion yet because the riding is essentially the same as i...

Re: Best Kite ever made??

free your minds from pimping. North? You must be kidding me. Slingshot? Naish? Wipika? What a joke. Most posters on here have probably only flown the brands they pimp anyway. The best kite ever was the one Ben Franklin used to discover electricity. Even if it's a myth, it's still the best. Electrici...

Re: Cool Felix&Hat strapless action

Yeah, Hats been testing and working with freakdog a bit and flying it fixed on pulley bar to see what it can really do (and to speed it up). In my opinion the kite looks fine for strapless jumps but is way too slow for wave riding. Nothing wrong with the brand. Seems as good as any flat kite and wel...
