Re: 2012 North Nugget vs 2012 Freerace?

Hi MM,

I got the FREERACE this year. Had teh second version of the North Raceboards and the Freerace is better. I was able to jibe much easier than the previous ones. Never tried the nugget.

I would see that the Freerace will have a better low end while Nuggets is more enjoyeable in the surf.

Re: North 2011 Gear

I have asked a guy who tested the Vegas thouroughly and he said that it has less pull than last years. So, some people might like it especially in strong wind zones and those with moderate winds would not like it. Still loops as fast as before.

Re: rebel 2011

I got confirmation from riders that the 2011 Rebel has less power than 2010. The new canopy material is more rigid and stronger with 70% stronger against ripping. The floating strut did not cause any ripping issues in 2010 models, so continued to be on 2011. I tried the EVOs and I like but not as mu...

Re: rebel 2011

10 minutes not enough to know a kite man.

I heard the opposite. 2011 has less power than 2010.

Anyone from North here to confirm!

Re: new stuff by Mark Shinn. The Shinn Capri GT

round/blunt the noses on kiteboards I reckon, with them flying around in the wind riding strapless experience tell me to have a sharp nose on a kiteboard does nothing, just risks a cut rather than a bruise - and cuts keep you out the water - bruises don't! and then there is the eyes. I second that....

Re: North Vegas 09 vs 10?

I got a 12 and a 9m. Both rock. 9 is fast that I like. 9 pulls well in the loops.

The 9 has got no low end. So, it is not a Rebel or Fuse...

Re: Qatar - anyone there?

Plenty of kiters man.... heat is the limit. No surf just flat and freeride options. Accomodation is a bit expensive as the country is not geared for tourism yet... if u hate heat, you may consider Lebanon and it is the windy season as well. cold water with 27-30 ambient temp. on both spots, 9m is a ...

Re: 2010 Evo - 3 month review

Strange review... we did not have the same comments from the riders in our spot. Actually, this year after 6 months of riding 2010 gear, the dealer is sold out. Our spot is AVERAGE 25 knots and makes its way to the 35 knots on most days. Non of the leading edges had a pop, a valve open etc... Non of...
