Re: rumour: fone's new kite uses brainchild technology

My experience is not really on the leading edge itself, but on the extrados near the leading edge, this part is not well kept in shape with very thin leading edge.

Yes, it's a shame Clement Huot and F-One are parting ways when there are rumors of something really nice and special coming from F-One.
Why Brainchild welding technology would ensure the kite to be a good one ?

Re: Pansh Kestrel, high performance kite

Choosing a kestrel as a race comp is a strange choice... Of course you won't win, it's a performance freeride kite.

The ratio is between a soul and a sonic

Re: Pansh Kestrel, high performance kite

Just to explain... This mod is absolutely not mandatory. It's just for those who suffer of really too much bar pressure.
