Re: Wingfoil is building faster than everything

funny how they refer to some kite performance. even knowing the wing is twice as smaller then the kite in comparable conditions. if you fancy a jumping high and rotating same time, then you are probably a big fan of the figure skating. i'm not sure that "wingfoil is building faster than everything",...

Re: Interesting Interview with Ralf Grösel

funny how Ralf Grösel topic turns into aluula life support campaign. i must admit, i have never heard Ralf Grisel's name before this topic. may be the reason of his departure from DT is salary or may be he just doesn't like to ride the bicycle to work, as Duotone would like its staff to commute acco...

Re: Do you need Aluula Kites?

i think aluula was late for about 10 years to appear. who needs it now, when foilboards and wings are here? i'm not kiting on twintip if i can't ride with my 11sqm kite any more, so why do i need big aluula kite? certainly not for foiling. but most amusing is how Ocean Rodeo is reinventing the histo...

Re: Zeeko spitfire and Canards in general

Is zeeko the only manufacturer? Why isn't canards getting the attention it deserves? The answer is probably is in your question. It is because it does not deserve much attention. In aviation canard system finds use mostly in supersonic military applications, and it is not without its flaws. In avia...

Re: Wetsuit selection

Hi, guys! I'm trying to select a 4/3 wetsuit for this winter, and want to ask your opinion. I've shortlisted 4 available models, that I can have: 1) Ripcurl Flashbomb Fusion (new model, bloody expensive) 2) Ripcurl Flashbomb (regular one, zip free, more affordable) 3) Ion Seek Select (bloody expens...

Re: Duotone NEO SLS 2022 - where did the quality go?

Let me start of by saying that I am not the kind of person that gets annoyed ... it is always amazed me how people usually find crappy quality as one time accident. in fact these kinds of accidents are quite common. if you have a spare time and patience to research, you will find a lot of evidence ...

i think it is just a plain marketing.
who needs this double skin wing?
just a handful of brand sponsored riders for the competitions no one exactly interested in.
it is like the cuben fiber or aluula all over again, too late for the financial success and too expensive for the average joes.

Re: Winging/Foil Head Protection

I have this one and like it quite a lot https://rideengine.com/products/barrier-soft-helmet i'm sure Luke and Leia and possible some of their Ewok friends would appreciate this design, but for me it is just plane degrading. in fact I didn't find any water helmet model currently found in any on-line...

Re: Switch Kiteboarding Launches New Innovative Spider Bridl

nothing innovating in this bridle, just substitute for real r'n'd. ...Reading your comments, to know this it seems like you must have analysed the LE sweep, profile, canopy arc, LE diameter, control bar, everything! And flown the kite in real life! Otherwise you have no idea how the canopy will def...
